Are you wearing sustainable fabric? It matters. The provenance of your shirt, pants, and underwear isn't just aesthetic or ornamental. It's serious stuff. Consider food, which isn't that different from clothing. Textile production is an industrial process, with all the economies of scale and chemical adulteration that entails. Just as processed food bears increasingly little resemblance to whole food, clothes are not "whole textiles." They are processed junk fabric enhanced with plastic fibers and many of the same chemicals we try to limit in our foods.  But there's better clothing out there, just as there's better food. There's clothing made of sustainable fabric—fabrics that sustain life, rather than detract from it.  When I say "sustainable," I'm not thinking about the planet as much as I'm thinking about the health of my own body and my family's. For if something is going to be sustainable on a global level, it must first be a sustainable fabric for the individual. It has to support the life of the organism that populates the planet and is indeed part of the planet. Again, let's refer back to food. If a diet isn't compatible with good health in the population, how can it be good for the planet? Is there any situation where a diet heals the planet and its biological systems while leaving the individual animals who eat it sickly, diseased, weak, and infertile? Of course not. For clothing to be made with truly sustainable fabric, it must be good for individual health and the environment. No other definition of "sustainable" is acceptable. And so when determining the sustainability of a given fabric, we have to consider the health impacts. The Best Sustainable Fabrics Organic Cotton Cotton is the most common and widely available natural fiber, but it's also very popular with the bugs. Cotton plants produce nutritious and energy-dense fruits throughout the growing cycle, making it irresistible and leading to heavy pesticide usage. Conventional cotton is the most heavily treated crop in the world, responsible for a lion's share of total global pesticide applications—despite covering just a fraction of the world's cropland.  GMO cotton engineered to repel the most common cotton pests with an in-house toxin worked briefly but ultimately led to resistance to the engineered toxin, necessitating more pesticide usage and triggering a chemical arms race between farmers and pests that continues to this day. In fact, Indian cotton farmers use more pesticides now than they did before the introduction of GMO cotton. I was unable to find any evidence of the pesticides used in cotton production residing in the finished fabric and then leaching into human skin, but skin is permeable. These things happen. Washing reduces any surface-level chemicals added to the cotton, but those bound to the fibers itself may remain. Again, there's not a lot of research on this topic, perhaps because it's one they'd rather not broach. Linen Linen is an ancient sustainable fabric with prehistoric roots—as far back as 30,000 years in present-day Georgia and 10,000 years … Continue reading "A Guide to Choosing Sustainable Fabrics"
