Biodynamic Organic Cotton Linens and Towels

With the introduction of Bt cotton, Monsanto promised cotton farmers that they would be able to use less pesticides and their yields and income would increase.

Unfortunately, that didn’t happen. With Bt cotton, secondary pests have emerged, forcing farmers to use much greater amounts of costly pesticides — as much as 13 times more.

And now the price of cotton seed continues to rise, and farmers are no longer able to buy seed that isn’t genetically engineered. Bt cotton seed costs 4 to 10 times more than conventional hybrid seed, and farmers are forced to buy new seed every year.

That’s not all… Increasingly, farmers began losing livestock to illness and death after they grazed in Bt cotton fields, which contributed to a decline in milk production. Other serious reproductive failures surfaced, and workers began to fall ill.

Many cotton farmers have gone into serious debt from loans they were forced to take on. Nearly 400,000 farmers – many of them cotton farmers – have committed suicide between 1995 and 2018, translating into 48 farmer suicides every day in India.

You can get #cotton #bags pretty much everywhere. How did an environmental #solution become part of the #problem?

source: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/08/24/style/cotton-totes-climate-crisis.html

An organic cotton tote needs to be used 20,000 times to offset its overall impact of production, according to a 2018 study by the Ministry of Environment and Food of Denmark. That equates to daily use for 54 years — for just one bag.

...

It’s also associated with forced labor, thanks to revelations about the treatment of Uyghurs in #Xinjiang, #China, which produces 20 percent of the world’s cotton and supplies most Western fashion brands.

...

You can’t, for example, just put a #tote in a #compost bin: Maxine Bédat, a director at the New Standard Institute, a nonprofit focused on fashion and sustainability, said she has “yet to find a municipal compost that will accept textiles.”

...

Some brands are turning to other #textile solutions. The British designer Ally Capellino recently swapped cotton for #hemp, while Ms. Hindmarch introduced a new version of her original tote, this time made from recycled water bottles; Nordstrom also uses similar bags in its stores.
