Textile waste shipment to Indonesia with Yuyun Ismawati from Nexus3 Foundation
Textile waste is a significant environmental issue that is growing every year. Research has found that the fashion industry is responsible for around 10% of greenhouse gas

Some countries try to resolve the issue of textile waste by shipping their waste abroad, for example, to Indonesia.
