I saw a statistic recently that the average American throws away around 80 pounds of clothing annually, and it honestly made me rethink how normalized overconsumption has become. What’s interesting is that sustainability shifts like thrifting, repair culture, and reusable products all feel way more mainstream now than they did 10 years ago. Makes me wonder how much real sustainability progress starts with cultural shifts before policy and corporations eventually follow. submitted by /u/Ok_Appointment_4909 [link] [comments]
