Why should you care about textile waste?
The apparel industry accounts for 1/10 of global carbon emissions and nearly ⅕ of all wastewater pollution.
A staggering 85% of textiles globally end up in landfills, with over half of newly produced clothes discarded within a year.
In Singapore, a mere 5% of 2020's 137,000 tonnes of textiles were recycled.
