fashion waste

Fashion waste refers to the environmental impact caused by the fast-paced clothing industry, which produces large quantities of garments that are often discarded quickly. This includes excess textile production, unsold stock, and the disposal of worn-out or outdated clothing, much of which ends up in landfills. The process consumes significant resources like water, energy, and chemicals, contributing to pollution and climate change. Reducing fashion waste involves practices like recycling clothes, choosing sustainable brands, and buying only what is needed, helping to lessen the industry’s environmental footprint.
