Global Stand
Against Textile

Waste 


"Every year, India generates an enormous amount of textile waste, with a staggering 80% of domestic textile waste ending up in landfills. These discarded fabrics, especially synthetics, can take centuries to decompose, releasing toxic chemicals and potent greenhouse gases like methane."

Focusing on Resource Waste (for new production) 

The immense thirst for new fashion is real; a single cotton T-shirt demands an astonishing 2,700 litres of water to produce.

25%

Focusing on Greenhouse 
Gases from Landfills 

Methane is more than 25 times more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere over 100 years than carbon dioxide. This makes the methane released from landfills a significant contributor to global warming and climate change. 

80%

Total Volume of 
Waste & Landfill Burden 

When we say that an astounding 80% of India's domestic textile waste is dumped in landfills, it means approximately 6.24 million tonnes of clothes and fabric are added to the environment's burden every single year

The Silent Mountain in Our Midst

Each year, billions of garments are produced, feeding endless demand for new trends. But where do these clothes end up? Beyond closets and donations lies a growing mountain of textile waste harming our planet.

A landfill is basically a huge dump where we bury our trash. The big problem is, we're running out of space, and many things, especially clothes, don't just disappear. They pile up, creating giant mountains of waste.
When textiles go to a landfill, they take an incredibly long time to break down. Natural fabrics (like cotton or silk) can take decades to hundreds of years, and synthetic ones (like polyester) can last for centuries! They don't vanish; they just sit there.
It harms the planet in a few key ways:
* Toxic Chemicals: Many clothes have dyes and chemicals. As they slowly rot, these poisons can seep into our soil and water, polluting them.
* Potent Greenhouse Gas: When natural fabrics break down without air in a landfill, they release methane, a powerful gas that traps heat and contributes significantly to climate change.

* Microplastics: Synthetic clothes shed tiny plastic bits that can pollute everything around us.

A shocking amount. In India alone, about 80% of all domestic textile waste — that's your old clothes, sarees, and fabrics — gets dumped directly into landfills. That's a huge loss of resources and a massive burden on our environment.

You can make a big difference! Instead of throwing away old clothes and sarees, try these:
* Give Away: Donate clothes that are still in good condition.
* Fix It: Repair small tears or damage.

* Upcycle! This is where Usha Designer Studio shines! We take your old sarees and transform them into beautiful new designer outfits. By upcycling, you're not just getting a unique piece; you're directly helping to keep textiles out of landfills and saving our planet.
