these are a few articles and a video on clothing pollution, and plastic recycling exports
TAKE AWAYS
We need to be conscious of the quality of donated clothes, our consumption level, and handling our wastes ourselves without shipping it overseas.
TITLE CARD IDEAS:
Where will your clothes be in 200 years?
Where will all the plastic you have ever used be in 200 years?
GOAL:
to bring awareness about the impacts our consumption habits have on the rest of the world
and to incite more conscious decisions on the clothes we consume and throw away.
This is an interesting and socially relevant topic for your infographic. I'm curious to see what methods you'll employ to animate this information and to show some of these processes. I like the title card idea of "Where will your clothes be in 200 years?" It speaks to some kind of story about the life of clothing - maybe you could tell that story as the way to create awareness about your topic.
