If you are a believer in used clothing/shoe recycling your in the right place! Not only does reselling shoes and clothing help protect the environment, it can help you save money as well.
By buying pre owned items, you can help reduce the amount of clothing that ends up as waste in landfills, reduce the need for manufacturing new clothes and save money on quality name brand items! It really is a win-win situation for everyone involved!
Americans collectively trashed 9 million tons of reusable clothes, footwear, towels and bedding in 2005, according to the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Solid Waste.
Recycling has become a major issue as scientific research has been suggesting for years that the earth is being depleted too fast to sustain a healthy balance. The earth’s natural resources are being consumed at a rate that reinforces the idea that we are living for today and the future generations will be paying for the consequences. However, many people are realizing the problem at hand and the importance of recycling.
Recycling along with reducing consumption is our best means to counter the damage we have been doing to the earth for centuries.
I bring the recycling to you! I frequent thrift stores estate sales and other places that sell recycled items and purchase things that I myself would like and re-sell the recycled item on ebay as well as local classifieds. I buy everything that I personally own 2nd hand and try hard to encourage others to do the same. I want my children’s children to live on a healthy planet!
