'Indian textiles-apparel industry needs circular roadmap'

In India, circular economy is not new, as the practice of donating, exchanging or using pre-owned clothes has been a common age-old activity. "Clothes are either handed down from older to younger siblings or re-used as kitchen wipes and mops," mentions Tyagi in an article in the hard bound fifth edition of the Sustainability Compendium - ‘Going Circular’ brought out by Fibre2Fashion.

However, "with rising globalisation, we are at risk of not only oppressing our invisible humans of circularity but also forgetting age-old approaches to sustainability that have long existed in India," he writes in the article 'Charting a roadmap'.
