A framework with three key actions—identify (I), act (A), and evaluate (E) to achieve complete environmental sustainability in fashion and textile production in line with SDG 12—has been developed as a part of a Global Challenge Research Fund (GCRF) project. Called the ‘I–A–E framework’, this framework emphasises zero or near-zero waste generation at the source and incorporates sustainability thinking in material and process selection rather than postproduction waste management after the generation of large amounts of wastes and effluents. The first step involves identifying present scenarios and points of action in the context of resource consumption, air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution, and solid waste generation in product development and production. The next step is to act for sustainable development, which includes incorporating (1) a zero-waste philosophy during production, (2) sustainability thinking into material selection and production processes, and (3) sustainability in resource and waste management. The third component of the framework is to evaluate for celebrating achievement and moving forward by checking the eco-indices to amend targets or set new ones. This new framework was validated through workshops with stakeholders and roundtable discussion. It is an easy-to-follow toolkit that the fashion and textile industry will be able to implement in product development and production activities.

摘要

A framework with three key actions—identify (I), act (A), and evaluate (E) to achieve complete environmental sustainability in fashion and textile production in line with SDG 12—has been developed as a part of a Global Challenge Research Fund (GCRF) project. Called the ‘I–A–E framework’, this framework emphasises zero or near-zero waste generation at the source and incorporates sustainability thinking in material and process selection rather than postproduction waste management after the generation of large amounts of wastes and effluents. The first step involves identifying present scenarios and points of action in the context of resource consumption, air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution, and solid waste generation in product development and production. The next step is to act for sustainable development, which includes incorporating (1) a zero-waste philosophy during production, (2) sustainability thinking into material selection and production processes, and (3) sustainability in resource and waste management. The third component of the framework is to evaluate for celebrating achievement and moving forward by checking the eco-indices to amend targets or set new ones. This new framework was validated through workshops with stakeholders and roundtable discussion. It is an easy-to-follow toolkit that the fashion and textile industry will be able to implement in product development and production activities.
