Yesterday when I was wondering about the topic of my new post my eyes turned upward and the view was so breathtakingly beautiful. Cotton candy skies are so rare as they only occur for a few moments and not shown every day. So the idea had dropped to my mind. Today I'm gonna tell you the secrets of cotton.

Cotton is the most commonly used fabric on earth, accounting for over half of the world's fibre needs and it can be regular or organic.
The organic cotton is grown organically, meaning the cotton plants are not genetically modified and no harmful pesticide or fertilisers are used in the process. It uses 11 times less water and emits 46% less CO2, it's amazing, don't you think?

Basically, you can use organic cotton instead of regular cotton in just about any instance.

In the match of conventional cotton versus organic cotton, organic is definitely the answer so far.

The organic cotton can be GOTS certified, the most important certification worldwide, the aim of the standard is to define globally recognised requirements that ensure the organic status of cotton, from the harvesting of raw materials, through environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing all the way to labelling, in order to provide a credible assurance to the end consumer.
If a product or textile claims to be GOTS Certified, it means that they are using a minimum of 95% organic fibres. If it is labeled with “made with organic” it contains a minimum of 70% certified organic fibres.
Go Organic, be Sustainable.

Stop F**king The Planet,
Julia.
