The textile industry is one of the world’s largest contributors to emissions and waste. Fast fashion floods the market with low-quality goods that release microplastics and end up in landfills. Waste Free Edmonton wants to help address its impacts in Edmonton.
Since 2018 Waste Free Edmonton has advocated for strong action on single-use items in Edmonton. A bylaw came into effect as of July 1, 2023, but there is still work to be done.
