This is the type of environmental regulation I can wholeheartedly support.

I’m sure this won’t have any unintended consequences years from now!

Let’s see how long until they donate or sell them at steep loss to a foreign subsidiary who will then destroy them and the parent company will look great on the report. Or some other scheme like that.

oh look it’s a barge with an incinerator owned by a company in the Cayman Islands that just happens to be parked 13nm off the coast of france. And would you look at that they are buying all surplus clothing for 1 euro per kg

This is exactly the type of regulation that exists only so politicians can pat themselves in the back and think they are doing a great job instead of addressing issues that are fucking everyone in the ass.
Instead of destroying the unsold clothes they will be donated, or sold as „surplus“ to a subsidiary of another company for cents per kilo which will be later incinerated or landfilled in India or another Asian country.

What was the problem? They will keep sending it to Africa.

My one concern that isn’t there a loophole here to just sell the clothes on the cheap to Africa or southeast Asia for them to destroy instead?
