Description

Around 300,000 tonnes of textile waste is burned or land filled in the UK every year. While many people take unwanted clothes to Charity shops or re-sell them online, that only deals with a small proportion of the problem, which is in reality being passed on to others.

Island authorities have fewer options in dealing with waste.
