Have you considered what happens to your clothes after you have finished wearing them?
I take mine to the opp shop and from then on they leave my awareness.
Until one day recently when I began to consider that I was really running an eco business and all that I strive to do is in service to humanity to return us to natural origins.š
With some research I realised that my love of natural fibres had nothing to be with being elitist it was ethical and in service to mother earth.š
Natural fibres will decompose in your compost! You and I can complete they cycle of clothing in our own back yards. There is no reason to see landfills become over populated with clothing when you chose wisely.
In your compost - š¾ Linen will decompose in 2 weeks šæ Cotton In 6 months š Wool In One year š± Bamboo In 1 year š Silk In Four years š Polyester and nylon In 200 years š Plastic tags and tabs 400 years
Why don't you try burying some stained or torn clothes in your compost and see what happens. First remove the tags, labels and zips.
