Don't Let Fashion Go to Waste

How do u take care of ur unwanted clothes?
throw it or let it pile up as a small hills back in ur closet?
We may not realise tons of textiles end up in landfills, which almost 95% of these could be reused.

Now u have an alternative ways to recycle ur clothes. Long Live Fashion!!
Clothes of any Brands, Quality, and Condition are collected by H&M
Bring ur "worn, torn, or out of style" clothes to selected stores. (one that i know is at Setia City Mall, haven discover other stores yet)
For each bag of clothes u hand in, you will receive one voucher of 15% off for ur next purchase. (Each customer can hand in two shopping bags of clothes every day)
What are you waiting for???
give away old clothes and get a discount voucher! 

HOW IT WORKS
Rewear : Clothing that can be worn again will be market worldwide as second-hand goods.

Reuse   :Textiles tat are no longer suitable to wear will be convert into other products, such as cleaning cloths.

Recycle : Textiles that can't be reused get a new chance as textiles fibres, or are used to manufacture products such as damping and insulating materials for the auto industry.

Energy : When rewear, reuse and recycle are not options, textiles are used to produce energy. 


We probably doubt how much difference can that old t-shirt can make.. Well, producing a cotton t-shirt creates between 1.5 and 3.6kg of CO2. In the recycling process, these values are reduced by some 85-90%.
Revenue from the returned garments will be used to make donations to local charity organisations and to invest in recycling innovation.
since is just unwanted clothes, play ur part and save the earth.
