Many clothing donations end up in African landfills
> Today, the average American buys 68 new items of clothing per year.> “You wonder, do people in America have so much money that they can just wear things once and then throw them away?”I uh… I too would like to know. What scares me is that the use of whatever demographic is causing that average has to be way higher than the actual average, but this feels like it has to be bimodal.And there are lots of these numbers in the news. The "average American" produces an obscene amount of food waste too, far beyond what I feel I actually produce, as best as I can estimate it.
