一项新的研究强调西方城市纺织废物问题日益严重,指出大部分捐赠的服装最终出口或丢弃。 A new study highlights the growing problem of textile waste in western cities, noting that much of the donated clothing ends up being exported or discarded. 全球纺织品废物每年为9200万吨,预计到2030年将翻一番。 Global textile waste stands at 92 million tonnes annually, projected to double by 2030. 慈善机构难以管理大量低质量捐助,往往向海外出口高质量物品。 Charities struggle to manage the large volume of low-quality donations, often exporting high-quality items overseas. 研究人员倡导地方政府和慈善机构之间加强协调,以解决过度消费和供过于求的问题,并提出互换和修理中心等新的商业模式。 Researchers advocate for better coordination between local governments and charities to tackle the issue of overconsumption and oversupply, suggesting new business models like swapping and repair centers.
