Love Not Landfill and Wear Next: How London and New York make fashion circular
January 13, 2020

Each year, millions of pounds of clothing are landfilled or burned globally, with less than 1% recycled into new garments. Campaigns like Wear Next (New York) and Love Not Landfill (London) demonstrate how diverting clothes through swapping, selling, donating, or recycling can prevent them from becoming waste.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity founded in 2010, is a global leader accelerating the transition to a circular economy. They work to ensure materials are kept in use, eliminating waste across business, government, and academia. Discover more about their initiatives at ellenmacarthurfoundation.org.
