Local Infrastructures Feeding on Textile Waste0 aDon t let fashion go to waste Local Infrastructures Feeding on T  aLeipzig3 a<p>From April 2013 onwards textile giant Hennes &amp; Mauritz launched its “Don’t let fashion go to waste”-campaign and offers its customers to bring their used clothes back for a discount. H&amp;M, known for supplying cheap and fast fashion now also entered the business of disposal of clothing that is a growing market for decades. Alternatives to H&amp;M or the dustbin are already established in second-hand shops, flee-markets, legal or illegal recycling-banks or swapping in peers or family. Additional to these practices new forms like swap-parties help people to reduce their textile waste while considering time, money, ethics and resources to assemble a local fragmented textile infrastructure.</p>1 aDerwanz, Heike  uhttps://degrowth.community/conference2014/scientific-papers/3720
