You can easily do your part for the environment too, you can:
• Use a lower temperature wash which uses less energy
• Wash garments regularly - don’t wait until the garments are filthy as washing a filthy garment requires more energy to clean
• Use eco-friendly detergents
• Discard the garment appropriately when it is worn out, not with other industrial/construction waste
