Yeah, so how do clothes end up in a landfill? Like, what makes them unsuitable for any use at all?

frvMaQUA8Ioz=oATH

捐赠的衣物怎么会被扔进垃圾填埋场呢? 是什么导致它们没有任何适用的地方?

Yeah, great question. So, when it comes to --

Because people will just, like, give away clothes and not think twice, I feel like.

因为我觉得人们会不假思索地捐掉衣物la.DB4Mdi*

*UymhguJBD9~YE^L&dpI

Right, exactly. So, at least in the case of Goodwill, they will throw away immediately anything that comes to them wet or soiled. And that's largely obviously for hygiene and safety purposes.

i5k(qa6Ux.H9y%qOe)

对, 没错REpxtA+Bq1。至少在Goodwill(慈善组织)的例子中,他们会立即扔掉任何送到他们手上的湿哒哒或脏兮兮的东西Mc=QvzT!G=]FzsJ2G!)。这很大程度上是出于卫生和安全考虑yt&&XnZeO~3g_;*

S,&xDR,p^n

Sounds gross.

KG_^ui=A_tzAC*k@CzS

听起来很恶心xH6+C;z_q,+&~

9RuFb2EB*@pyohj

Right. So that makes sense. And so, you know, if we're thinking about how we donate, very clear rule of thumb is make sure you're not giving something that is wet or soiled.

zfasJK#3x5^[DDzMb

没错tfcg2)E!50H7qA5dYB。这么做可以理解#vd~^68%.+K@n~=E!。如果我们在考虑如何捐赠的问题,明确的经验之谈是确保捐赠的衣物干燥或干净.I)07=zG.NkBo4*C%S

You know, your garments should be cleaned. If you're able to repair some minor damages on them, definitely do that, too.

But Goodwill will take things that are, you know, ripped or whatnot, and maybe it will go to the salvage dealers.

JH5Ntb6j5xMAfI,~M@dj

但是Goodwill(慈善机构)会将破碎衣物或诸如此类的衣物送到报废商那里Ht]QcckXi&*dI44U

ik_v|X*2i&KZ[

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. And clothes that end up in thrift stores or are resold, what happens with that money? Like, they're selling that to get money for their organizations?

93jr7Q-H^DF

至于那些最终出现在二手店再出售的衣服,所得的钱财都到哪里了? 他们是在出售捐赠衣物为组织赚钱吗?

6oZoQ;JIsFlgHD48

Right. So, typically, the money is then used to fund their community programs and their operations.

You know, in the in the case of Goodwill, it'll go to their workforce development programs and their community outreach and that type of thing. So the money is going to important efforts and initiatives.

在慈善机构Goodwill,这些资金将用于劳动力发展项目和社区推广等事情1celO[VMx.OQMhx。这些资金将用于重要的活动和方案V^SrCFg;fi1+pYwp

v3nCMB([+]c-

Yeah. And how many of these clothes, like, go to people who are just needing clothes? Is that a common outcome or a lot of clothes are just resold and that money is used to raise?

!AnNEMCQbm543;O

LKFCm9)lWG(--xPZ7;i。有多少衣服会送给那些只需要衣服的人? 这样的结果常见吗,还是很多衣服只是用于再出售,所得的钱财用来筹集资金?

I don't have exact numbers on that.

There is some thought that, you know, if you donate to a more local community organization, those clothes will probably go directly to people in need and potentially has a better chance of that happening. But it really kind of depends on the organization that you're going to.

%8AS84t9zne-_[,

有人认为,如果你向一家当地的社区组织捐赠衣物,这些衣服可能会直接送到有需要的人手中,而且更有可能发生这种好情况1acH,7BwVgCSy6。但这实际上取决于你要去的组织O&j%I=ZP|KoI]zxqAHC

0EY3wnxc4(j

Okay, so, Allyson, if I'm looking at my clothes, what should be some questions I ask myself about the state that they're in? And, like, the types of items that I have.

*p5RxFqEITM,;!_)

好,艾莉森,如果我在翻看衣物,我应该问自己关于衣物状态的什么问题? 比如,我有什么类型的衣物FJy_kPv+5A~Sn1D^|iB+

Yeah. There are some really simple best practices to follow when it comes to those type of things.
