CHANGE. THE. WORLD.

Discover how looking good never felt so right

Given the enormous waste that fast fashion produces today, the easiest thing you can do for the environment is to be mindful about your clothing choices.

Why Join The Tribe

When will we say ENOUGH?

The future is waiting:

3/5 items bought are thrown out within a year.

Every second, one rubbish truck full of textiles is burned or sent to landfills.

The fashion industry causes 10% of all greenhouse gas emissions. (more emissions than all international flights and shipping combined).

Washing one synthetic garment releases about 2000 plastic microfibers into the food chain.

It takes 2,700 litres of water to make one cotton shirt (enough water for one person for 2.5 years).

120 million trees are cut down every year to make clothes.

30% of the rayon and viscose used in fashion comes from endangered forests.

Making and washing one pair of jeans emits the same CO2 as driving 111km.

Up to 16% of the worlds pesticides are used in cotton farming every year.

Chemicals degrade soil, pollute water and cause disease in cotton workers.

Testimonials

How the tribe has helped others just like you:

As a mid thirty year old male, I had lived a hedonistic lifestyle with a wardrobe at capacity. I’ve changed with this website.

— Buck R.

I care so deeply for our planet, but I did not know how damaging fast fashion was. GarbSite so articulately illustrated the harm I am doing. I am now focusing on style and enduring fashion.

— Sophie M.

I didn’t realise the impact I was having on the environment and am so glad I found the garbsite tribe. I have made small changes to my purchasing behaviour and feel great knowing I’m part of the solution.

— Cara C.

Thanks to garbsite I’m now an informed consumer and think about the impact of my decisions before purchasing. I feel empowered!

— Rebecca L.

Since taking the pledge I’ve been able to go 90 days without fast fashion... and counting! Not only do I feel good about my reduced impact on the environment, I don’t miss the clothes I would have purchased and am able to save and spend more wisely. Win!

— Adi W.

The space in which we live should be for the person we are becoming now, not for the person we were in the past. I love GarbSite!

— Marie K.
