In my opinion, this is a negative reaction!
It is imperative for everyone to not only acknowledge the
urgency of addressing climate change but also to actively educate others. As
many remain unaware of the critical state, our planet is in each expert in
their respective field must either devise solutions or advocate for research
aimed at mitigating these changes. As an expert in textile dyeing and printing,
I recognize the substantial environmental impact of textile wet processing,
particularly conventional methods which contribute significantly to water
consumption and pollution. Therefore, I believe that influential organizations
such as the United Nations, the Eu USAID, as well as countries like the USA,
Scandinavian Countries, Italy and Germany along with public figures should
prioritize support for digital printing technologies due to their considerable
water conservation benefits and reduced waste pollution. Moreover, efforts
should be directed towards promoting and incentivizing the production of
digital dying fabrics which can save over 70% of water and lead to less
polluted wastewater.
