The textile industry is one of the world’s largest contributors to emissions and waste. Fast fashion floods the market with low-quality goods that release microplastics and end up in landfills. Waste Free Edmonton wants to help address its impacts in Edmonton.
Many other municipalities around the world have created single-use plastic bylaws, and Waste Free Edmonton helped spearhead our own version. Single-use items will be restricted in Edmonton starting July 1, 2023.
