I guess this is a better way than syntetics and chemicals, but remember they say that the way cotton is produced today (using chemicals) and using soil and water that should have been used for growing food is not so good. Also today we buy a lot of chlotes that we do not use or use only for a short time. If those are cotton it is not good
Cotton is a sustainable crop...clothes produced from oil are not (a lot of synthetics)
No cotton is not always grown properly, but neither is most of our current food supply.
