Celebrating National Recycling Week: How Project Emerald Helps You Make a Difference
In Australia, over 6,000 kg of textiles are sent to landfill every 10 minutes—much of it still wearable. While we recycle plastics and paper, our fashion often goes overlooked. At Project Emerald, we believe the most powerful kind of recycling isn’t just about bins—it’s about reuse.
Why Reuse Matters:
Buying and selling second-hand keeps clothes in circulation, not in landfill. Every item you resell or buy through Project Emerald is a step toward reducing waste, conserving resources, and lowering your environmental footprint. Fashion reuse doesn’t just save the planet—it also gives garments a second life with someone who will love them.
How Project Emerald Helps You Make a Difference:
Keep Clothes in Circulation: Our platform makes it easy to sell or buy pre-loved fashion, extending the life of every garment.
Track Your Impact: See the environmental benefits of your actions, including CO₂ saved, water saved, and waste reduced.
Support a Sustainable Community: Join thousands of Australians committed to conscious fashion and ethical consumption.
Your Wardrobe Can Change the Planet:
Take a look in your wardrobe—what can be sold, swapped, or donated? Buying pre-loved fashion instead of new helps reduce waste and keeps garments in circulation. Even small actions, like sharing your sustainable finds with friends, create a ripple effect for a greener future.
