Burberry, Capitalism and circular economy

Burberry, Capitalism  and circular economy

I wake this morning listen to the radio and was shocked to hear that Burberry is literally burning ££££ Millions of  good clothing in the name of holding up their brand.

This is utterly devastating for the planet and everyone on  it . This is such an utter waste of energy and resources at all levels  and should be stopped ! BUT HOW ?

The best way of protecting the waste of resources and therefore the subsequent damage to the planet through pollution, and Climate Change  through all the wasted energy that has been expended on these clothes is to -
                               Scrap all existing taxes and replace with a single Natural Resource Tax collected as near to source as possible and calculated based on the actual  ecological damage caused by their use and consumption by all sections of the consumer chain. 

It is not until all natural resources attract a real value of their worth both in terms of the damage they cause all ecosystems  but also their real value in what we can use them for , for the benefit of mankind and the planet.

This maintenance of brand in this way  must stop as it shows just how wasteful capitalism is  and how greedy we are to maintain and elitist lifestyle at all costs, even one that abuses the third world and its cheap labour used in the making of these garments.

The Circular Economy must be brought far more to the fore and with a Taxation system as proposed above, this would certainly achieve this. It is only through the recognition of the true value of all Natural resources, will any long term stability and sustainable living occur,
The polluter must pay and they are the consumer at all levels , whether from design to manufacturer , from farmer to plate, from birth to grave , Everyone must appreciate the true cost of their lifestyle and pay the price as they go.
