Zero-Waste Fashion

Humans are polluting rivers and lakes faster than nature can recycle and purify them. For example, the apparel and textile industries are now the second-largest polluters of pure water, just behind agriculture.

As consumers, we can help by choosing a sustainable choice whenever possible and aiming for zero-waste fashion. We may buy clothes from a vintage or thrift store. If we have clothes we no longer wear, we can donate them to charities or sell them at thrift stores. We can also save water by washing our clothes less frequently.
