Did you know clothes can be recycled?
Penneys has launched a clothes take back system across its 36 Irish stores.
The company is aiming to make donating unwanted clothes more convenient.
It's research, alongside RED C, found that almost a quarter of people didn't know clothes could be recycled at all.
The take back boxes will be visible with blue signs in store, and will accept clothing, footwear, bags and some textiles like towels or bedsheets.
However, the retailer's efforts are being described as "disingenuous" by a sustainability expert.
Co-Founder of the Useless Project Geraldine Carton says the "Textile Takeback" scheme will do little to help the environment:
