The challenge we now face!
Due to fast fashion and the throw-away society, people are choosing low quality clothes & shoes that quickly become textile waste. Furthermore most people are unaware that frequent washing also causes chemical pollution and releases microplastics into our oceans.
Looking at the effects of washing we see:
Disadvantages for you
- clothes wear out faster
- high water and energy bills
- high ecological footprint
- takes a long time
- not all stains are removed
Disadvantages for the environment
- clothes shed microplastics, which end up in the oceans
- high water consumption
- pollution by harmful detergents
- extra CO2 emissions…
