This makes reducing water use, wastewater, and energy/CO₂ the most urgent priorities to address in the textile value chain.
One way clothing and footwear producers are working to address these priorities is by using more recycled raw materials, such as recycled polyester from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, within their synthetic fibers.
