What harm does shoe waste do?
Billions of tons of shoes are produced every year, and a large part of them, after their life cycle is over, end up in landfills or somewhere in nature.
There they decompose for years, and this process is associated with a number of harms:
Water and soil pollution as a result of the natural processes of decomposition of the textile and other elements contained in them;
Decomposition of shoes in landfills and/or anywhere else in the environment is linked to release of methane, a greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change;
It threatens animal and plant world – animals can become entangled in shoe waste or swallow parts of it, and this can lead to their premature death.
What are the benefits of recycling old shoes?
The benefits associated with buying and recycling shoes are several including environmental, economic and social ones:
textile and footwear waste can be recycled and thus produce new resources. Recycling saves significant amounts of energy, water and more. It also helps to reduce the total amount of waste that is disposed of in landfills and/or released uncontrolled into environment;
related to the fact that the recycling industry and in general that related to waste management, creates new jobs, promotes green economy and saves money for production of new footwear from recycled materials;
shoes can become a more accessible product, even for the socially weak groups of the population. Beside that, in this way, the environmental awareness among the society increases.
