There is an abundance of clothing EVERYWHERE, including that received by national charities. The export of 2nd hand clothing creates an environmental challenge outside of the US and is in need of reevaluation and redesign.

Let’s see how excess clothing can be sorted at a hyper local level, and channeled through another round or two of local ownership. A change in consumer behavior can result in reduced consumption/production of new clothing, increased use of what has been produced, and thoughtful reallocation of end of life materials. Ultimately this can reduce the GLOBAL negative impact of fashion.
