Clothes discarded by UK consumers choke Ghana's protected wetlands

Ghana is already known as a “fast-fashion graveyard”, but a new study has shown unwanted clothing is now being dumped beyond urban areas. Reporters at Unearthed, working with Greenpeace Africa, found mounds of clothes from brands including Next, Primark and H&M clogging areas of the protected Densu Delta. Sam Quashie-Idun, the head of investigations at Greenpeace Africa, told FRANCE 24’s Perspective programme that one particular dumpsite now “looms taller than a two-storey building”.
