Stick To White To Be Green
Is the red organic shirt in your wardrobe as harmless as it seems? Think twice. Apparently, despite the availability of a large variety of garments made from organic cotton and hemp, you might still not be getting a fair green deal. The basic business instincts in man should be blame here as more and more manufacturers are at a cost cutting spree.
Reports reveal that cloth companies are outsourcing their fabrics to inexpensive dye houses in Asia that use substandard or banned dyes. The workers at these dye centres are not only paid a measly allowance but they are also unaware of the carcinogenic nature of the chemicals used.
So, what should one do? Well, buy clothes only from known brands. And since they say that natural is the best; do not buy dark or bright colours. Stick to white or anything light and you shall safely be green. Look out for the eco-labelling on garments.
