One Piece Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Kakogawa City, Hyogo Prefecture, Representative Director: Akiko Haruki. Hereinafter referred to as One Piece), which operates a women’s apparel mail order, will be operating Matsuyama Environment for two periods, October 26th (Saturday) and October 27th (Sunday), 2024. A “clothes exchange” will be held at the fair. The “Clothing Exchange” is an experiential event where there are stages and workshops by companies, organizations, high school students in the city, etc. to give tips on Matsuyama City’s environmental efforts and how to incorporate environmental considerations into daily life. We will be opening a store to exchange and reuse clothes. By choosing not to throw away one piece of clothing, you can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide produced by producing 255 plastic bottles! What do you do with clothes that you no longer wear, even though they are still beautiful and still wearable? According to the Ministry of the Environment’s FY2020 “Fashion and Environment” survey results, Approximately 70% (approximately 450,000 tons each year in Japan) of clothes are thrown away It is said that the reason for discarding is that it “doesn’t require much time or effort.” Each year, 470,000 tons of clothing are thrown away without being sent for reuse or recycling. They are incinerated or disposed of in landfills. And One discarded piece of clothing emits the same amount of carbon dioxide as producing 255 plastic bottles. We have been holding this event since 2021 with the hope that it will become a big vortex through actions that anyone can easily start from close to home, such as “giving each other clothes that are still in good condition” that they have had to part with due to outsizing or lifestyle changes. The “Clothing Exchange” event was attended by a total of 45,000 people. For both “encounter with new clothes” and “waste clothing problem” in the apparel industry We provide a “place” where you can bring in clothes that you would like to pass on or give away, circulate them, and have fun while working on environmental issues. Exchanging clothes makes it easy to venture into clothes that you don’t normally wear, and allows you to comfortably dress your child in a variety of clothes when they tend to outsize them. It also contributes from the perspective of community and connections, such as “I’m happy that I feel like I’ve helped someone by getting the clothes into someone’s hands.” Image
