2020濮阳一模答案及试题(高三全科)。One of the first steps in getting unwanted
clothes out of your cupboard is to sell or consign (寄送) them. But
because popular resale shops like Buffalo Exchange and Crossroads
don't accept fast fashion brands because they don't profit enough
from them, people often turn to throwing their old clothing in the
dustbins. Many consumers don't realize that clothing and textiles
(纺织品) are recyclable or how to recycle them. According to the
Environmental Protection Agency, the United States generated 16.22
million tons of waste textiles in 2017 and recycled only 2.62
million tons. Ten and a half million tons of textiles were finally
buried under the ground that year.
Vetements, a Parisian fashion brand worn by
celebrities like Kanye West and Rihanna, aimed to bring awareness
to the problem of fast fashion brands and clothing waste with a
recent window display at Saks Fifth Avenue in New York. The window
contained a giant pile of clothes. The pile, which grew daily, was
made up of old clothes donated by Saks employees and outofseason
items from the store.
On Aug. 10, the clothing from the display was
donated to RewearAble, a Long Island recycling program that
collects old clothes and textiles, and prepares them for resale or
repurposes the textiles.
