Just silly maps I made yesterday after seeing reels about these huge heaps of trash you find in India. I know it’s not just textile waste from the west but still. We should name cyclones and tropical storms after oil compagnies and I guess we should also do the same for these huge landfills.
But do you have any evidence that these landfills are specifically operated by or for these fast fashion brands, or largely filled with waste generated directly by these brands?
Because it seems like a tenuous connection to draw, saying that the existence of landfills in a developing country with a billion+ people and poor sanitation standards can be directly attributed to fast fashion. India will generate garbage all on its own.

Hopefully soon, we will see these as mount testaccio, where we cover the mountain with dirt and convert it into a new green hill for locals and tourists alike to enjoy

Just fyi the fact under the image “every year fast fashion account for 10% of the worlds CO2 emissions” isn’t true, the people that came up with that stat did so for the entire clothing/fashion industry in general. Fast fashion only accounts for a fraction of that 10%.
The other problem is the stat is actually the clothing industry contributes 8-10% of the worlds **GHG emissions** per year. CO2 is part of that, for CO2 alone it’s from 3-6%.
Would’ve been better to word it as “The fashion industry contributes up to 10% of the worlds greenhouse gasses”
Stretching the facts can invalidate entire points and we don’t want it to ruin a very valid observation.

I thought this was real ,a geographic marvel,I stay some 10km away from mount zara,A plan rushed in the mind to visit this landmark on sunday but I checked again because of the dubious name.
We have a rare geographical wonder nearby ‘Gilbert Hill’.
