Rewear Revolution – The business of second hand clothing
المصدر: CGTN EN | Source: CGTN ENEvery year, millions of garments are tossed into colorful recycling bins in developed nations, giving donors a warm sense of doing good. But that simple act sets off a chain reaction with far-reaching consequences—destroying local industries, fueling inequality, and wreaking havoc on the environment in developing countries.
This eye-opening journey connects the dots between well-meaning recycling and its real-world impact. From vintage stores in northern Europe to companies innovating to reduce their environmental footprint, the documentary travels to Uganda, where locals struggle to cope with the flood of donated clothes.
"Rewear Revolution" reveals the untold story behind our “discarded” fashion and the global ripple effects of every garment we cast aside.
