- Our old and unwanted clothes are creating an environmental crisis. In 2015, we sent 10 million tons of textiles to landfills in the U.S. That’s equivalent in weight to about 5 million cars. If you think you’re solving the problem by donating or recycling your old clothes, think again. They don’t always end up where you expect. NBCLX storyteller Bianca Graulau takes a closer look at the problem of clothing waste and how your shopping habit is hurting the planet.

I would never wear a garment once or twice and then discard it. I still have clothes I bought from 20 years ago. Some items have tears or holes, but I still wear them until they are no longer functional or don't fit. If people have enough money to discard essentially new clothes, then they should not complain about how tough it is to make ends meet. Their savings are literally being discarded.
I try not to donate my clothes to goodwill because they have too much. Donate to smaller places or like churches that truly can give to people in need. But regardless all used clothes will eventually end up somewhere. I also saved my used t shirt to use clean stuff…
This is not about OUR shopping habits,as much as its about cooperate greed, and the manipulation of the minds of people through marketing.
Yep. Look at fashion nova 🤮🤮🤮 the KARDASHIANS promote them! Like wtf?! 🤬 people should be outraged by this. The most famous people in the world.. not only them either. SO many GIANT celebrities promote these disgusting companies like fashion nova and shein. Do NOT buy things from them.. the stuff they’re involved in would shock and horrify you.
You wanna yell BLM and talk about slavery that happened years ago??? What about the slavery happening TODAY?! Why would we burn down cities for something that happened years ago and do NOTHING for the slavery happening today.. to women and CHILDREN! Ridiculous.
We have things so backwards in this country 😔 it’s sad and ignorant.
Corporate greed but they get away with it by blaming us as consumers.
And the fact that most clothing brands don’t even bother recycling there fabrics they just throw them out cut up
So nobody can take them
Or instead of selling your clothes to a discount shopper, they throw them out and write it off as a loss on their taxes
Who else is here for school?
me
@@sebastianllanes100pp4 Same
Me bro I have to write an essay on fast fashion 😭😭😭
@@hadiafaridchishti9131 can u send me This pls?
I'm👕🩳🌍 here independently. I'd love to be in school. I have an idea as how to downsize the clothing landfills. If any entrepreneurs/students want to venture with me.🌍🩳👕
Spokane has a "waste to energy" plant where they burn waste products to make electricity. They have filters at the top to help cut down on emissions too. Why don't more cities do this?? It makes total sense......
Trying not to buy things changing my. Ways but my god I never know that the clothes you give to the good will or. Other store they send to other countries that’s a eye opening thank you got the information.

so touching for an excellent video
Maybe one of the reasons why there’s so much clothing waste instead of recycling the fabric these companies will just tear it up and throw it in the garbage instead of sending it to a fabric recycler
Because recycling fabric cost them more so it’s easier to just write it off as a loss and throw it in the dumpster
It bothers me that these companies are telling their employees to tear up and cut up the clothes before they throw them out so the poor aren’t wearing them
If it’s being thrown in the dumpster, that means nobody wants to buy it it out of fashion and who cares if the Poor is wearing your clothes
Imagine understanding what a fashion is and not wearing the same shirt for a month in a row as it slowly gets more comfortable.
Brilliant and educational video. Thanks ; ) K
What kind of people wear something only a few times and then throw it away?
Superbe vidéo génial et intéressant elle permet d’avoir un nouveau regard sur la récupération de vêtements je recommande 👍👏
Send those clothes to Africa, Haiti, Cuba, Jamaican, and in other places that have poor people. I need clothes.
You have too much clothes I would say. Based on the amount that developed countries ship to your country
They burn it all like are you slow
Do someone know what Company / Resources I reach out for an ecommerce apparel company that wants to disposal discontinued and damaged clothes? The clothes needs to be destroyed, preferably for recycled purposes.
Thanks
Nice vidéo 👌
To title this our shopping habits are hurting the planet is not a good title. First I have thrifted probably 85 percent of the items in my closet. So I am thrifting. So I am willing to reuse items someone else did not want. As a country the only way this will stop is for companies to stop manufacturing so much junk. That is part of free market though Some people are so concerned with the latest fashions but if people were willing to wear items longer and make them last then we would not need stuff to be made new ever year. I mean yes we need bras and underwear I would say those most because those get more worn out. Yet there are so many pieces of clothing made that fast fashion places have them on sale and they can not get rid of many of them. So those many times are donated. So the only way for less to go to the landfills is stop over manufacturing stuff. A little extra helps but not so much that even thrift stores are getting to much and tossing other stuff because they can not house all of it. Yes if people stopped buying so much fast fashion possibly that could help but also if name brand companies were not charging at times 3 times the amount they need to for a product they may not be having made in America. So it is a big mess to work through. I do think if we had to pay more for clothes over all and they were made better then there probably would be less shopping. The average person in America can not just go out and drop 50 on a shirt or 100 dollars on a pair of jeans. If they did they would have less in their closets and sadly in America and the world we want more for our money but if more means not made as well, then it is better to have less and something we can wear longer.
Government Garments - Used clothing shops where revenue goes into public funds.
What about people that lives in the snow or winter clothes
Yea needed
How can I get these clothes for poor people
That is what we call fast fashion. More like fast ticket to blow up Earth.
Ironicly donating to poor countries destroys economies of given countries as local businesses suffer. That makes people disconnected with the process of making clothes. In USA most don't even know how to repair missing button or how to tell if a piece of clothing was well sewed (if stiches are of uneven lenghth it was badly sewn) so they end up buying clothes that fall apart after a few washes.
True,true, true
The Japanese prefer superficial cleanliness.
In other words, the Japanese believe that the circulation currency issued by the Japanese allows them to own anything, including laws, torts, and slavery.
The people on Islands sell it back and forth to one another they do t even make it off the island the world is so wrong in so amny ways CAN IT BE FIXED
Damn
Ironically donating clothes to poor countries keeps them poor by destroying their local industries.
When it is said to them: "Make not mischief on the earth," they say: "Why, we only Want to make peace!"
Of a surety, they are the ones who make mischief, but they realise (it) not.
_Qur'an Surah Al-Baqarah 11-12_

Great quote sadly it is from Mein Kampf 2.0.. Those who read with hadiths omit any peaceful stuff. As for fashion if leaders of Abrahamic religions really cared we would have no clothes made up of mixed fibres since it is in Quran and Bible. God doesn't want planned obsolence that goes with use of mixed fibres. And I think God also knew how shitty synthetic fibres will be since he also knew how to turn water into goodsend food
My curiosity on this particular issue is how come some Corporation hasn't snagged this up yet? It is a textile for crying out loud. What do you think money is made of? It's a textile! This is literally the building block of wealth and it's free

Maybe people used to never throw away personal belongings for spiritual well-being and for identity, and prayed more often, feeling gratitude more often. And no mountains of trash existed before phones were used. I would want to find and accumulate every personal belonging I used. And really reconsider buying most vintage. Because only after i got older was when i realized was perhaps the reason why few female non-fashion class instructors recommended students to buy from Goodwill or secondhand stores was based on jealousy and ruining students any bit by bit. “Rich” households seem to keep and accumulate personal belongings as archives&sentimental reminders more than relatively lesser and abusive households. People may discard less stuff and shop selectively or shop for more storage if media episodes air how some people don’t discard and shop carefully as people learn from others and many times mimic what other people do in media or in person. Jealous or evil people seem to want to discard other people’s items directly or indirectly. The value of items are never linear to their original prices. even old newspapers can be interesting or can have more quality and value than comparable new items. Perhaps people could burn and discard very few items at their own homes like🧚🏾once in every few years for consideration.
