When it comes to the caring to the environment and what’s
better for it, using natural products instead of synthetic fabrics is
advisable. If you think about it, producing fabrics takes a lot of energy. In fact,
the greenhouse gas that has the biggest contribution in the earth is the
textile industry. We might overlook fabrics since it place a special role in
our lives and to the economy.
The most popular fabric in the world is cotton. Cotton ranks
second when it comes to the use of herbicides and pesticides. It takes one
pound of pesticides in order to produce cotton and create 3 packs of shirts. Organic
cotton is produced by using methods and materials that creates low impact to
our environment.
When it comes to clothing to home furnishings, organic
cotton fiber is the material being used. Some of the examples of organic cotton
can be found at make-up removal pads, sanitary products, ear swans and cotton
puffs. The organic cottonseed is always applied to different types of food
products such as chips and cookies. Natural products such as organic cotton can
provide the solution to any inorganic cotton that will not damage our
ecosystem.
