I guess most people assume that 100% cotton equals a good product, maybe even a sustainable one. It is true in the sense that 100% of anything is easier to break down and thus recycle. However, what we might not be realizing is what impact cotton farming actually have on our environment. For example, It can take more than 20,000 liters of water to produce only 1kg of cotton. Furthermore can the chemicals and pesticides used in farming completely wipe out the existing eco-s\u00a0stem and have severe health impacts on workers living on or close to the planting ground.<\/p>\n

\"Cotton<\/p>\n

So what\u2019s the alternative? What should we look for? For example there is an initiative called \u201cBetter Cotton\u201d. Better Cotton is a not-for-profit organization stewarding the global standards and bringing together cotton\u2019s complex supply chain, from the farmers to the retailers.<\/p>\n

You can find Better Cotton in products from, amongst others, Levis, Marimekko and Tommy Hilfiger. On the Swedish market you can find Better Cotton at Stadium, Gina Tricot and Baby Bj\u00f6rn to name a few.<\/p>\n

Cotton is one of the world\u2019s most important natural \ufb01bres.\u00a0It\u2019s used by nearly everyone on Earth every day, and supports 250 million people\u2019s livelihoods. It\u2019s a renewable natural resource, but only if we manage it responsibly.\u00a0In 2005, a group of visionary organisations came together to \ufb01gure out what could be done to safeguard the future of cotton. \u201cThere has to be a better way\u201d, they said. It turns out there is. It\u2019s called Better Cotton.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
