While researching organic and enviornmental friendly clothing I learned a lot of facts I have never known before.
I learned between 10-25% of pesticides and insecticides are used to grow cotton! Just to make ONE t-shirt it takes 1/3 lb. of that junk!
Recycled items such as bottles are now even being made into the clothes. Hemp and bamboo are also being put into the process of attempting to make our clothes more enviornmental friendly.
Three stores that you can purchase these organicaly friendly clothes are:
Patagonia, REI, & Nau.
Buying organic clothes can be a little pricey, but you can buy them from Wal-mart and H&M for more affordable discount prices.
You can basically get any type of style you wish to have such as:
jeans, t-shirts, hoodys, skirts, shoes, socks, business clothes, tank tops, workout wear, nightgowns & even lingerie!
AND GUESS WHAT!?
No more sweat shops! -In the places that these clothes are made, there is absolutley NO children working. It is all adults who get paid normal wages for hourly work.
