SO SIMPLE...EVERYBODY WINS....30% of clothing produced currently will never be sold and never be worn, likely heading to the nearest landfill or incinerator. Tell the Los Angeles City Council to require all unsold clothing to be repurposed, recycled, or donated.

Use your "voice". Tell the LA City Council to keep unsold clothing out of landfills...

Clothing overproduction is wasteful and harms our environment.
