LEAVE THE BAD POLYESTER ADDITIVES TO YOUR BIN BAGS
Polyester = Plastic
A plastic bag takes 20 years to biodegrade; a polyester dress takes 200.
Nearly 70 million barrels of oil are used each year to make the world’s polyester, which is now the most commonly used fiber in our clothing.
Fashion is responsible for 85% of micro plastics found on shorelines around the world.
When polyester garments are washed, they shed microfibers that add to the increasing levels of plastic in our oceans.
MAKE YOUR PLEDGE
PVC was so last year, you could pledge to buy organic natural fibres where you can.
