Scenarios for reducing the environmental impacts of the UK clothing economy

Journal of Cleaner Production, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 420, P. 138352 - 138352

In the 21st century carbon emissions, material consumption, and impact on planetary boundaries associated with clothing have increased dramatically, driven in large part by fast fashion. The UK represents a typical, affluent, import-reliant Global North country, consumption per capita at double global average impacts largely offshored. Progress towards sustainable, circular economy has been sluggish, as it globally. Here, we develop scenarios exploring how, over coming two decades, could achieve ambitious reductions environmental necessary to bring humanity's back within boundaries. consider of production- consumption-focused changes, modelling uses flow analysis an assessment energy water land use. We find that cleaner production recycling alone provide significant benefits for use, reducing footprints 60–70% 2040. But meaningfully reduce transformational changes will be required throughout supply chains consumer post-consumer stages. same is true if track net-zero 2050, which requires these well under way next decade order halve emissions. Given scale change required, seems highly unlikely current business models are compatible sustainable future.
