Fashion Waste - Africa is Not a Dumping Ground

Every second of every day one rubbish truck of fashion goes to landfill. 150 million tonnes of second hand clothing arrives in Ghana's market every week. 40% of those clothes are unsellable and are dumped. We explore where our clothes really end up, the catastrophic damage they are causing and what we can do about it with Betty Osei Bonsu, Project Coordinator at Green Africa Youth Organisation (GAYO), George Harding-Rolls of The Changing Markets Foundation and Amy Nguyen of Sustainable and Social.
