Textile Waste Is Toxic Because????
.
????It releases toxic gases, dyes & chemicals in our water & soil
????Fabrics made from synthetic fibres (Polyester, Nylon, PP) release micro & nanoplastics/fibres in our water bodies
????These nanoplastics travel through air & water & enter our food (Data src: earth.org)
????That's why RECYCLING IT NOT A PERFECT SOLUTION for textile waste

????Choose undies/bras made from sustainable/compostable materials like organic cotton (GOTS certified if possible) or bamboo
????Check durability before making a purchase
????Choose ethical brands that prioritize sustainability over fast fashion brands that are just after your money
????Repair as much as you can before giving up on them
????If you're gonna make dusting cloth out of them, use them whole instead of cutting them up
