Organic Cotton

Why should you use organic cotton on your skin? Consider these facts:

  • According to the Sustainable Cotton Project and Pesticide Action Network North America, cotton used about 23 percent of the world’s insecticides and more than 10 percent of all pesticides.
  • In the U.S., it takes about one-third of a pound of chemicals to grow enough cotton for one T-shirt. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, more than 53 million pounds of pesticides and 1.6 billion pounds of synthetic fertilizers were applied to 11.9 million acres of cotton in 1996.
  • In California, five of the top nine pesticides used on cotton are cancer-causing chemicals.
  • Cotton is the crop with the third-heaviest pesticide use.
  • Dioxin (a by-product of bleaching, cotton defoliating, and starch sizing) was found in residual amounts on T-shirts in 1994 by a researcher.
  • In California, where over one million acres of cotton are grown each year, cotton production ranks second for total amount of pesticides used.
