Is the future of retail this green?

I'm sure we all like to do our bit for the environment, so even better when a touch of retail therapy lets you do just that.

An innovative shopping mall in Sweden is stocked entirely with second hand and up-cycled goods. The mall is conveniently located next to a recycling centre where a team organises the unwanted items into categories.  The tenants of the mall can then select items to up-cycle and sell in their shops.  

Up-cycling and vintage shopping has been quite on-trend in recent years, but this takes the saying "one man's trash is another man's treasure" to a new level. 

Could sustainable shopping on this scale catch on in the UK and be the new future of retail?
