| Sumario: | "The alarming level of greenhouse gases in the environment, fast depleting natural resources such as water, petroleum products and the increasing level of industrial effluents have made every single manufacturing activity come under the scrutiny of sustainability. When all kinds of waste such as clothes, old furniture, carpets, televisions, shoes, paper, food wastes etc. end up in the landfill, only a few of them are naturally decomposed and thus a large majority remains as non-biodegradable. It is for this reason, efforts are concentrated to reduce the burden on earth by this waste, and as far as used textile products are concerned, there are now attempts to recycle or up-cycle. At the same time, people in third world countries do not have access to sufficient clothing whereas those in developed countries are following the policy of make-use and throw."-- |
