YAY, you made it!!! 🥳
Day 8 of our Contamination Campaign is ✨Textiles✨
The textile industry is one of the largest polluters. Many of the produced garments are low quality, and don’t last as long as they used to. In fact, the life of consumer products, like clothing, shortened by 50 percent from 1992 to 2002. Check out ‘Every Thread Counts Campaign’ by DEQ at https://www.oregon.gov/deq/mm/wpcampaigns/pages/make-every-thread-count.aspx
One way to reduce textile impact on the waste stream is to donate or reuse! Find local donation or consignment shops near you using the Mid-Valley Curbside Collection App!
