And water waste. [0]

Most people have no idea how water intensive the textile dyeing of their clothes really is.

Buy high quality clothes and wear them as long as possible.

I love my adidas hoodie that already is 10y+ The sad truth is that quality clothig is not available in many countries. All my best stuff was bought in France. In Poland they sell crap(too small after washing 3 times, super thin) and even more expensive. There are some local companies with quality stuff but they are niche.
