Thursday, 10 February 2022 – 00.01 one minute past midnight (CET): Textile consumption in Europe has on average the fourth highest life-cycle impacts on the environment and climate, following consumption of food, housing and mobility. Ahead of the expected European Union (EU) strategy for sustainable and circular textiles, the European Environment Agency (EEA) published two briefings ‘Textiles and the environment: The role of design in Europe’s circular economy’ and ‘Microplastics from textiles: towards a circular economy for textiles in Europe’ that look at measures to reduce those impacts, including on resource use, greenhouse gas emissions and microplastic pollution.
