Last year, 79 percent of the polyester in its collections came from recycled materials, and next year it wants it all to be recycled. The Swedish fast fashion giant told AFP that recycled material allows the \u201cindustry to reduce its dependence on virgin polyester made from fossil fuels\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The problem is that \u201c93 percent of all recycled textiles today comes from plastic bottles, not from old clothes\u201d, said Urska Trunk of campaign group Changing Markets. In other words, from fossil fuels. And while a plastic bottle can be recycled five or six times, a T-shirt in recycled polyester \u201ccan never be recycled again\u201d, said Trunk.<\/p>\n<p>Almost all recycled polyester is made from PET (polyethylene terephthalate) from plastic bottles, according to the non-profit Textile Exchange. In Europe, most textile waste is either dumped or burned. Only 22 percent is recycled or reused \u2014 and most of that is turned into insulation, mattress stuffing or cleaning cloths.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLess than one percent of fabric used to produce clothing is recycled into new clothing,\u201d the European Commission told AFP. Recycling textiles is \u201cmuch more complex than recycling other materials, such as glass or paper\u201d, according to Lenzing, an Austrian manufacturer famous for its wood-based fibres.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaljournal.com\/world\/why-fashions-recycling-is-not-saving-the-planet\/article\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaljournal.com\/world\/why-fashions-recycling-is-not-saving-the-planet\/article\">DJ<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/why-fashions-recycling-is-not-saving-the-planet\/\">Why fashion\u2019s \u2018recycling\u2019 is not saving the planet<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[10594,2043,764,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-125170","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-fasion","tag-planet","tag-recycling","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125170","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=125170"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125170\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=125170"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=125170"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=125170"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
