If you look in your wardrobe, the majority of your clothes are probably made from cotton or a cotton blend, it&#8217;s everywhere in our homes. Not only that, it&#8217;s next to our skin everyday, we depend heavily on cotton, which in turn depends heavily on the environment &#8211; but with organic cotton that does not have to be true.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Organic Cotton<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Buying products made with organic cotton rather than non-organic may not seem like a huge difference, but it can really benefit the environment and workers in developing countries, as well as you!<\/p>\n<p>So many of our favourite clothing brands such as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/shop\/braintree-hemp\/\">Thought<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/shop\/people-tree\/\">People Tree<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/shop\/ethletic\/\">Ethletic<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/shop\/patagonia\/\">Patagonia<\/a> ensure they use organic cotton\u00a0 among other\u00a0sustainable fabrics.

As no synthetic fertilisers or toxic pesticides are used to help the crop grow, the farmers build soil fertility and lock CO2 into the soil, and the wildlife and rivers remain unpolluted from this kind of farming. Non-organic farming systems can be responsible for poisoning wildlife and rivers, and killing an estimated 16,000 people each year.<\/p>\n<p>Genetic Modification (GM) is also banned in organic farming. It is estimated that 30% of cotton grown around the world is genetically modified. Critics argue that as we don&#8217;t know the long-term effects, this poses a potential risk to wildlife and human health, and exposes farmers to unnecessary expense.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Workers<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1154\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-823\" src=\"http:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Manzoor.jpg\" alt=\"Organic cotton\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Manzoor.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Manzoor-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Manzoor-768x443.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Manzoor-1024x591.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Since farmers don&#8217;t use potentially toxic pesticides to grow the cotton, workers benefit by avoiding the associated health benefits and deaths that are common in non-organic cotton production. This also reduces costs and farmer debts, something which has resulted in thousands of farmer suicides in the developing world.<\/p>\n<p>For most organic certifications, working conditions in factories must also meet certain criteria when it comes to minimum wage, working hours, child labour and more. This is to ensure nobody is being exploited during the production process of the clothing.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>You<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1301\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-825\" src=\"http:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/you.jpg\" alt=\"Organic cotton\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/you.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/you-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/you-768x500.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.naturalcollection.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/you-1024x666.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Organic clothing is so much better for you too. Because there are no harmful chemicals used to grow the cotton, the final products do not contain allergenic, carcinogenic or toxic chemical residues. These can cause allergies, skin rashes or respiratory problems as they are inhaled or absorbed through the skin.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Organic Certifications<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>There are a range of different organic certification bodies for textiles. But remember some companies do use organic cotton to make their clothes but they may not be certified.
