Clothing, Self Care and Your Carbon Footprint

Less than 1 % of used clothing is recycled into new garments. The Ellen MacArthur Foundation estimates that every year some USD 500 billion in value is lost due to clothing that is barely worn, not donated, recycled, or ends up in a landfill.

Doubling the life of a garment from one to two years reduces it’s carbon footprint by 24 per cent.

Making beauty products at home reduces plastics, reduces impact of manufacture, shipping and selling.

Whatever you decide to do, just make a start.
