On average, the people of the Taiwan area every year throw away eleven kilos of old clothes each, making a total of more than 20,000 metric tons and about three-tenths of woven textile refuse. If all of this was buried, it would need at least 50,000 ping of land.
而台灣地區平均每人每年要丟棄十一公斤的舊衣，總量超過兩萬公噸，佔目前纖維布類垃圾量的三成左右，若採掩埋處理，至少需要五萬坪土地。
