Garbage
Thousands of tons of trash are brought to the Montgomery County Waste Transfer Station each day. The county's most recent data from 2014 shows that 8% of it is textile waste, including clothing. That’s more than the glass or wood waste the district recorded that same year. (Adriana Martinez-Smiley / WYSO)
