Waste prevention outreach campaigns
The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has developed waste prevention campaigns to help encourage waste reduction in communities.
Make Every Thread Count is an Oregon public awareness campaign that encourages Oregonians to think differently before buying clothes, make smarter choices at the register and extend the life of their clothing. Oregonians are smart, practical consumers and this campaign shows how simple steps can greatly reduce the environmental impacts associated with clothing.
