Is the issue of textile waste improving?

In spite of a fashion press that's massively optimistic about solutions to fashion waste, @DrChristinaDean, founder of @GetRedressed and @TheRCollective, tells that fashion's waste problem is still spinning out of control. 🔥

(Globally) Textile waste is estimated to increase by about 60% between 2015 and 2030, with an additional new 57 million tons of waste being generated annually, reaching an annual total of 148 million tons, which is equivalent to the annual waste of 17.5kg per capita across the planet.
