Let's talk about textile recycling for a second.
Other green industries got nurtured with real financial backing.
But textile recycling? It mainly only received strategy papers or speeches.
Personally for me, it's frustrating to watch, especially because we already know the exact recipe that works to scale green technology.
However, this means we already know exactly what recipe works to scale green technology successfully.
Imagine if we introduced mandatory recycled content targets.
So governments can then open up the exact same explosive growth for textiles.
We've been known that investors are ready to fund industrial-scale plants the moment clear market demand is guaranteed.
The technology and feedstock are ready.
And with the right policy spark, we can build a thriving circular economy. π
