Having clothing is a need, however there are ways to not contribute to the problem as much as you may be now. An example of this is thrifting. A common misconception is that thrifted clothes are "dirty" or "old" when in reality many thrifted clothes are from good companies and have nothing wrong with them. Thrifting is a good way to get the things you need at reduced prices and with no packaging which brings down your carbon footprint. If we recycle clothing and let other people use it, it reduces the amount of carbon that is being put out into our atmosphere at the factories and during transportation.
