Switzerland is exploring a potential recycling fee for old clothes, projected to be between 3 to 7 Rappen per item, to encourage domestic recycling instead of dumping. The SRF community has engaged in heated discussions, weighing this approach against alternatives like restricting cheap clothing imports and addressing the negligence of online retailers regarding returns. Many express shock at the average purchase of 60 clothing items per person annually, linking the issue to rampant consumerism. While some support the fee as a necessary step, critics argue it may not effectively tackle the root causes of waste.
