Did you know, that a whopping 20% of global wastewater comes from textile dyeing alone?
The fashion industry consumes a monstrous amount of water, around 93 billion cubic metres, leaving much of it contaminated by toxic chemicals.
According to the UN Environment Programme, 20% of global wastewater comes from textile dyeing (1). Because the bulk of the production is in countries with less regulation, the wastewater often finds its way to rivers and seas.
The dyeing process uses enough water to fill 2 million Olympic-sized swimming pools each year. (2)
In Bangladesh alone, 1,500 billion litres of water are used annually in garment factories and mills, depleting the region’s dwindling groundwater resources and transporting byproducts and harmful contaminants to nearby water sources.
What should we do about it?
