With the increase in climate change and global warming, each step taken by us matters, be it even by transforming our cotton closet into an organic cotton closet.

We are living in a time, where each step will either lead to an immense increase in global warming or will lead to the protection of Mother Earth. So why not make our actions count and take a step by protecting our nature by switching to organic clothing?!

As we know, the fashion industry is one of the largest industries of today, in which cotton textiles lead the line together with cotton manufacturing setting them as the highest-ranked in the fashion industry. These pieces of regular cotton constructed into garments lead to 88% more wastage of water from our resources.

Whereas Organic Cotton which has been made from natural seeds and handpicked to maintain the purity of fibers; uses 1,982 fewer gallons of water compared to regular cotton.

Gallons of water used by:

Regular cotton: 2168 gallons

Organic Cotton: 186 gallons

Due to the increase in market size of the fashion industry every year along with the cotton industry; regular cotton is handpicked by workers to keep up with the increase in demand for regular cotton and because these crops are handpicked it leads to various damages and crises such as:

• Damage of fibers: As regular cotton is grown as mono-crop it destroys the soil quality, which exceeds the damage when handpicked by the farmers, leading to the destruction of fibers because of the speed and time limit ordered.
• Damage to crops: Regular cotton leads to damage to crops when it is handpicked, as not much attention is paid while plucking it in bulk, due to which all the effort, time, and resources used to cultivate the crops drain out to zero.
• Water wastage: The amount of clean water being depleted to produce regular cotton is extreme which might lead to a water crisis. The Clean water when used for manufacturing turns into toxic water that is disposed into freshwater bodies, causing a hazardous impact on the people deprived of this natural resource.
• Wastage of resources: When all the above-mentioned factors are ignored by the manufacturers and the farmers, it directly leads to the waste of resources, as the number of resources used to produce regular cotton is way high in number when compared to the results in the end.

Regular cotton along with these damages also demands to use of chemical dyes for their further process, which is not only harmful to our bodies but is also very dangerous to the workers exposed to it, as these chemicals lead to many health problems like earring aids, lunch cancer, skin cancer, eczema and many more,
other than that people can also lose their lives when exposed to these chemicals for long other than people can also lose their lives when exposed to these chemicals for long.
