Are g-strings really bad for you? I asked a women’s health specialist

It’s time for change.
The apparel and textile industry is responsible for 8-10% of global emissions and 20% of global water pollution.
And it’s getting worse — clothing consumption has increased 400% in the past 20 years, and with 33% of clothing in Australia discarded each year, we’re running out of time.
Your purchase from Underwear for Humanity creates a radical change today and helps create for a better future.
Every pair of sustainable and ethical undies you buy helps protect our planet, empower women and support our local communities.

Support Local and Ethical Businesses
Big multinational companies and their subsidiaries dominate the consumables markets, and the money doesn’t go where it needs to.
Buying your essentials from us means you are investing in local community projects as well as essential restorative planetary needs.
Invest in a Sustainable Future
Charities currently spend $13 million annually discarding unsellable donations, including underwear.
We partner with charities to prevent underwear donations from becoming landfill waste.
Capturing just 10% of the 204 million underwear items imported to Australia each year could save 1,734 tonnes of waste annually.
Empower Women and Girls
We’ve processed 30,529 one-for-one donations to those in need and helping maintain dignity for those experiencing homelessness and/or escaping domestic violence.
Meanwhile, we have a work-training partnership with Social Engine, supporting at-risk youth and Afghan female refugees, offering a safe place to learn work skills and prepare for mainstream work.
