Why use organic cotton and wear organic clothing?
According to the USDA, almost half of the agricultural herbicides and pesticides used on U.S. crops are applied to cotton.This correlates to over 50 million pounds of pesticides used on U.S. cotton fields.These pesticides deplete the soil, pollute watersheds, and harm wildlife and humans.Broken down, this means it takes one-third of a pound of fertilizers and pesticides to produce the average cotton t-shirt.By wearing organic clothing, we can keep millions of pounds of chemicals out of the environment.
Organic cotton has the same fiber strength, length and other properties as conventional cotton and has a very low impact on the environment.Organic production systems replenish and maintain soil fertility, reduce the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and fertilizers, and build biologically diverse agriculture. To ensure this, third-party certification organizations verify that organic producers use only methods and materials allowed in organic production. By wearing organic clothing you are supporting sustainable practices that will ensure the longevity of our mother earth.Making conscious choices about what we consume, we can join a worldwide movement towards a safer, cleaner, and healthier world for many future generations to come. Thank you for supporting Planet Organique.
