Is Organic cotton really better for the environment?Updated 8 months ago

Organic farming methods exclude the use of synthetic and hazardous pesticides and fertilisers that are commonly used in conventional farming. This ensures that the surrounding lands aren’t exposed to pollutants that will harm the local flora and fauna.

Organic cotton is naturally circular, which means it can be reused, recycled and returned to the earth. The fibres that shed during laundering will biodegrade unlike polyester fibres that do not degrade.
