Zara to switch to sustainable clothes

Zara - and other brands like Pull & Bear and Bershka - have promised to only sell sustainable clothes by 2025.
The company that owns these shops says all cotton, linen and polyester they sell will be organic, sustainable or recycled.
From next year, containers will appear in Zara stores to collect your old clothes so they can be reused or recycled into new items.
This is great news in the fight against the fast fashion industry, which sees the UK send 235 million items of clothing to landfill each year, according to the most recent figures.
Zara will also eliminate its use of plastic bags.
