    Fast fashion depends on consumers buying into constantly changing trends, only wearing their clothes a handful of times, then tossing and buying more. How can you combat those influences to create a more sustainable wardrobe you'll love, value, and care for long-term?

    I learned a lot, it is a bit embarrassing how little I knew about it. It is a lot like communal recycling, An efficient system has lots of buckets for lots of different plastics, same with laundry. Plus found lots of cool stuff for washing polyester like the guppy bag or cora ball
