Sustainability!! Protect the planet & people, buy Pre-owned/vintage

Why buy Preowned/vintage?? I believe it is a significant act of sustainability. Consider: It is estimated that 10% of all greenhouse gases are produced from textile manufacturing. Every 2 seconds a garbage truck load of clothing is taken to a landfill. 1% of clothing is actually recycled. Several African nations have asked the US and Europe to STOP sending bales of NEW & used clothing to their countries. (This dumping of clothing undermines their own textile production and their economies.) Consider the poor labor conditions/laws & underage (children) laborers of NUMEROUS countries. And the LACK of environmental oversight or laws of the SAME countries. So we sellers of Preowned and vintage clothing encourage you... you CAN make a difference w a single purchase.
