Textile waste, wet

The fashion industry, particularly the manufacturing and use of apparel and footwear, is a significant driver of greenhouse gas emissions, pollution, water use, and textile waste. During the 19th century, industrialization meant a move towards the manufacture of textiles on a large-scale, which only accelerated the environmental degradation. The rapid growth of the fashion industry has led to around 100 billion items of clothing being consumed annually, with about 85% of clothes consumed in United States being sent to landfill. Recent research suggests that despite constituting a small fraction of total apparel volume, methane emissions from animal-based fibres (such as wool and leather) comprise a disproportionately large share of the fashion industry's greenhouse gas footprint Wikipedia
