Every week, thousands of tons of discarded British clothing are shipped to Ghana. What’s called “recycling” in Europe is destroying wetlands, poisoning rivers, and crushing local industries in Africa.
According to a new report by Greenpeace Africa and Unearthed, protected wetlands in Ghana—once vital for farming and wildlife—are being turned into dumping grounds for fast fashion brands like Primark, Zara, and H&M.
This isn’t just Ghana’s story. Across Africa, countries from Nigeria to Kenya face the same dilemma: accept mountains of used clothing waste, or risk losing trade deals and aid. What’s sold as “trade” or “aid” often hides a harsher truth—environmental damage, lost jobs, and economic dependence.
In this episode of Analytica Today, we look at how fast fashion waste reshapes Africa’s environment, industries, and sovereignty.
