Waste treatment is a fashionista’s issue

Fashion Waste Basics is my prototype for July 2024 Future Fridays “Data for Impact: Taking fast fashion to task” hosted by Infogr8 and Aida Horaniet of Viz for Social Good.
It is an attempt at using fashion magazine aesthetic to raise interest in fast fashion waste management. It highlights that a good performance (high and increasing rate of textile waste recycling) in the EU is only part of the story. A portion of EU textile waste isn’t accounted for after leaving the EU as used textiles.
Better monitoring of all waste is needed as well as a push for repairing, reusing and recycling over exporting.
