What a waste – Almost 80 per cent of unwanted

What a waste – Almost 80 per cent of unwanted textiles end up in landfill, a report by @australiancircularfashion (ACTA) for the NSW Environment Protection Authority has found.
Of almost 305,000 tonnes of textiles discarded in NSW last year, only 800 tonnes were recycled. ACTA CEO and founder Camille Reed said the research showed the problem had been underestimated. "Rather than your 23, 27 kilos per person that has been used for the past several years, it's closer to 39, 41 kilos per person per capita of textile consumption," Ms Reed said. The figures include clothing and household items like bed linen, curtains and furnishings. ACTA used the data to estimate that close to 1 million tonnes of textiles were being consumed in Australia each year, and the issue was probably being under reported. Textile recycling technology is improving quickly but there’s no point being able to recycle if we can’t intercept the textiles going to landfill in the first place. What to do — Buy less, buy better, and don’t throw your textiles in the bin. When discarding of textiles, find your nearest Moving the Needle drop off point, donate to charities, or resell any products in good condition.
