HOW TO TRHOW A CLOTHING SWAP!

North Americans send 9.5 million tonnes of clothing to landfill every year. 95% of which could be REUSED or RECYCLED. One trillion kilowatt-hours are used every year by the global textiles industry. That equals 10% of the global carbon total. The average person throws away 37 kilograms of textiles yearly. The production of new garments uses 1/3 of the world's freshwater resources. 2,650 liters is how much water it takes to make one t-shirt. Along with shopping at online thrift stores, hosting a clothing swap party will reduce textile waste and add a little secondhand flair to your ethical wardrobe. Not only is a clothing swap a lot of fun, but it also has some really great benefits for the planet, which we will discuss later. What a great way to clean your closet with little to no waste!
