J.a.c.k. Thrift: Sustainable Business Plan

Billions of pounds of clothing are wasted/thrown away by Americans every year. Our goal when we created this sustainable business was to greatly reduce that amount. The clothing and textile industry is very harmful to the environment. By recycling clothing, some of the pollution and damage that is being done to the earth during clothing production can be avoided. More than 2,700 Liters of water are used to make a single cotton t-shirt, toxic acid gasses like hydrogen chloride are emitted into the atmosphere, etc. If we all thrifted/recycled our clothing, this pollution would be greatly reduced. We can create a sustainable future by recycling or resources rather than throwing them away, reducing the amount of time spent and pollution created by making new material. Recycling clothing reduces water pollution, the amount of greenhouse gases being released, as well as the amount of materials harvested from the earth/animals.
