about organic cotton
Top 5 reasons why organic cotton is better:
- Tonnes less chemicals. Cotton represents 3% of the world’s crop but 25% of all chemical insecticide use is on non-organic cotton.(i)
- Less foggy brains. Pesticides can cause a range of ill effects in humans, from relatively mild effects such as headaches, fatigue, and nausea, to more serious illnesses.(ii)
- Farmers are our friends. Pesticide-related illnesses are a major problem for farmers. Fair trade and organic farming offer a healthier way of life for farmers.
- The environment – yeah, kind of important. Organic cotton is grown using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment. Organic production systems replenish and maintain soil fertility and build biologically diverse agriculture.(iii)
- Wears well. Organic cotton actually feels softer than average cotton products. Care goes into producing our organic cotton, so it’s not surprising that it ends up making good quality clothing.
