Abstract
An analysis of what happens to post-consumer textiles in nine cities across three continents uncovered remarkable patterns. The growing volumes of textiles bypass waste management systems and are directed towards exports, which externalizes environmental and social costs of the ‘end-of-life’ treatment. Recommendations are made for city governments to improve local circular textile systems.
