Original: Down to Earth - Old jeans could shield your home from the next heatwave
Old denim jeans are being repurposed as insulation material to protect homes from extreme heat, according to a report by France 24's Down to Earth programme. Recycled denim can be turned into insulating panels that help keep interiors cooler during heatwaves, offering a low-cost, sustainable use of textile waste as Europe and other regions face increasingly frequent hot spells.
Why now: Heatwaves are increasingly in the news, driving interest in cheap, sustainable home cooling solutions.
