‼️What Your Clothes Won’t Tell You- But Should! 👠‼️
Did you know the global fashion industry churns out a staggering 100 billion garments every year? That’s over 190,000 new pieces being produced every single minute and the real number could be even HIGHER since many brands keep their production figures under wraps 🤫. Shocking, right? 🤯
Despite overflowing closets, the average person regularly wears only 20% of their wardrobe (Source: The New York Times). The rest? It sits untouched, often tossed aside after just a few wears - contributing to fashion’s growing waste problem.
This cycle of mindless overconsumption comes at a staggering cost:
• Clothing production generates 10% of global carbon emissions - more than all international flights and maritime shipping combined (Source: United Nations Environment Programme).
• Over 85% of textiles end up in landfills or incinerated, releasing methane and polluting our environment (Source: Ellen MacArthur Foundation).
It’s time to rethink our relationship with fashion. Buy less, buy better, and support brands that prioritise sustainability.

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time:
10-12 minutes
