What do you think of the "new" hat I made for my sister? It used to be my mum's sweater. Posted by Gina at 8:32 a. m. on 11th February 2020 New uses for old clothing Nowadays, we're more wasteful than ever-buying, throwing things away without thinking. We need to start living more responsibly—but how? One answer is to upcycle (再生利用) . I started upcycling clothing. Making new things out of old clothes is the best way to mix my talent and my interest. Do you upcycle? If so, what new things have you made? If not, why not give it a try?

Terry B  Posted at 9:08 a. m. on 11th February 2020        I love UR idea. But why don't U give UR old clothes to people in need? I even give away the most expensive things I don't wear anymore. So I can help the environment while giving something useful to people in need.  Gina   Posted at 9:28 a. m. on 11th February 2020        Good point! I'm talking about only the oldest clothing in your room — the clothes that are too old to be worn by others. The same idea goes for food waste at restaurants and supermarkets. Before upcycling food that can still be eaten, for example, using it to make soil rich, we should give it to those in need.
