Description
  • To sustain” implies the continuation of status quo. For a planet that has sustained life for billions of years, a century or two is a mere instant. The time scale of sustainable thinking in today’s discourse is but only in years or decades at best. This paper makes a case that an assessment of a sustainable future in textile, a leading contributor to world economy, is a global imperative. Textiles provide myriads of products ranging from conversion of raw materials to fibers to fabrics and garments. The transformation consists of manufacturing, trading, use, and finally discarding. The technologies (process and product) and business processes currently in use during the life cycle are controlled by a few dominant multinational players. The paper addresses both strategic and tactical remedies for sustainability in the textile value chain consistent with the critical components demanded by society. All these collective actions will not insure success but rather provide a framework for a better and safer planet.
