environmental friendly clothing

I think that most environmental friendly clothing starts out as being made from a natural fiber. The problems with natural fibers is how they are grown and the finishes that they put on them or other fabrics they may mix them with. To grow natural fibers many growers use many fertilizers that harm our ground soil and ground water. When rain falls and erosion occurs these fertilizers travel down into other soils and contaminating them as well. With organic cotton, the plants are harvested naturally without fertilizers and are done so for over three years in the same location before its classified as "organic". Organic cotton is much cleaner and not factorized, dyed unnaturally, or give off polution when being processed.
