Urge your governor to take action on the growing problem of fashion waste

We are making more clothes than we can wear. Millions of garments produced each year are NEVER even worn before heading to a landfill or incinerator! Every second, the equivalent of one dump truck filled with clothing and other textiles from around the world is sent to a landfill or incinerator

Throwing away unwanted clothing isn’t a valid solution to the fashion industry's overproduction. It compounds the problem by reinforcing the belief that everything is disposable.

Clothes are meant to be worn, not sent to landfills and incinerators where they can pollute our planet for generations.

TAKE ACTION: Urge your state governments to ban the practice of sending unsold overstock clothing to landfills and incinerators
