WHY ORGANIC COTTON IS SO IMPORTANT
There are many reasons why people choose organic cotton.
Here are a couple of reasons why it is a must, especially when it comes to vegan clothing:
Organic cotton is grown without the use of toxic and persistent pesticides or fertilizers and doesn’t destroy the ecosystem, while chemical cotton is dependent on both.
Organic cotton is grown without harmful chemicals, leaving the soil, air, and water free from contaminants that cause harm. Organic cotton produces around 46% less CO2e compared to conventional cotton.
Organic cotton also uses far less water to grow since organic cotton growers typically utilize rain far more than irrigation.
Organic cotton does prevent various skin allergies which are often related directly to the chemicals used in non-organic cotton farming. Many people with skin problems report a dramatic improvement in their skin condition once they switched to organic.
By choosing to buy organic cotton you are enhancing the health of humans, animals, and natural resources around the world.
Supporting organic agriculture is also essential if we want to create improved working conditions for cotton farmers because farming organic cotton is more regulated, and therefore, fairly traded.
