In the future, our clothes will contain a tag that we can scan to access information. This will allow us to see how the garments were produced, where we can have them repaired, and how they can be recycled. Perhaps we will even be able to see who has previously worn the garment or be given the opportunity to rent it out. This spring, an innovation project was launched in which students at Campus H
