It's easy to forget that much of what we wear started life in the soil. It's important to know where our clothes come from and how they were made in order to understand their impact on the environment. The fashion industry is the second largest polluting industry in the world.
But there is good news. Opting for organic means you're supporting sustainable clothing that is better for the environment:
-
By working with nature, organic farmers build healthy soils which store more carbon, helping to combat climate change
-
Healthy soils soak up more water, helping to prevent flooding and droughts
-
Organic farmers use natural methods like crop rotations to control pests and diseases rather than harmful pesticides, helping to protect the environment and our health
Look for the logo and opt for organic next time you shop to help protect our planet.
