🇨🇱 Images from the Atacama desert, which has become a dumpster for the global fast fashion industry. Over 100,000 tons of clothing, many of them new items with price tags that weren't sold or used, have been dumped in the Atacama desert in Chile. 
The fast-fashion concept, the mass-production of cheap and disposable clothing, has made the fashion industry one of the most polluting industries worldwide, just after oil and agriculture.
When combining CO2 emissions from clothing production & the massive clothes waste, fashion production accounts for 10% of humanity's carbon emissions.

Some commonly used synthetic fabrics are #polyester, #nylon, #acrylic etc.
These #fabrics are made using fossil fuels and are #nonbiodegradable, hence they’re bad for our #environment.

Let’s stay clear off them while future #shopping. But we don’t have to get rid of the ones we already own. We must take good care of our clothes, use what we already have till it wears out.

After the clothes wear off, we must either #upcycle or #recycle them.
Disposing our synthetic clothes in the bin means sending them off to the landfills & that just means a mountain of clothes for hundreds of years to come.
We believe #upcycling is the most #sustainablefashion.
