3. The Conventional CURSE!!
Cotton is the world’s most used fabric for clothes.
The sad truth is that our planet Earth is paying a very high price for the cotton that we use!!

4. Truth About Conventional Cotton Farming
Environmental & Health Hazards
• 7% & 16% respectively of the total pesticides and insecticides consumption in the
world is used in conventional cotton farming, even though it covers just 2.5% of the total
agricultural land area. In developing countries, cotton is thought to account for 50% of
total pesticide use.
• Each kilogram of raw cotton produced requires 11,000 liters of water on average, which
gets contaminated with the toxic pesticides & insecticides used in the cotton farming
polluting freshwater lakes and rivers, threatening ecosystems, wildlife and water
availability for other human needs.
• 83% of manufactured nitrogen fertilizers used in conventional cotton farming end up in
the environment, releasing huge amounts of Nitrous Oxide (“laughing gas”), a
greenhouse gas that is 300 times more destructive than Carbon dioxide in terms of global
warming.
• Out of total 100 million cotton farmers producing cotton in 80 countries, up to 77
million of them worldwide suffer from pesticide poisoning each year, often resulting in
deaths and miscarriages.

5. Farmer spraying pesticides on the cotton crop

6. Truth About Conventional Cotton Farming
• The excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in conventional cotton farming
causes soil degradation, reducing its nutrient and water retention capacity. It leads to the
decline in cotton productivity forcing the farmers to increase the usage of various
Socio-Economic Hazards
chemicals to ensure the optimum cotton production. To pay for the increasing costs of
farm input, small farmers are obliged to borrow from banks or cotton buyers driving
more and more farmers into debt.
• Many small farmers fall ill or die due to a lack of adequate equipment's and knowledge
about handling of pesticides. Medical costs and inability to work becomes a severe
economic burden on them & their families.
• Conventional cotton farming is forcing more and more farmers and their families into
hunger as the farming approach involves the production of just one crop. If the crop
fails, farmers are left with nothing to fall back on forcing them to buy all their
food, making them vulnerable to price spikes and food shortages.
• India's once prestigious conventional cotton production belt is now referred to as the
"suicide belt" due to farmers being unable to accept growing debts. Since 2003, the
suicide rate has averaged one every 8 hours in Vidarbha, India.

7. A distraught cotton farmer and his barren farmland

8. Reality Of Conventional Dyeing
• Conventional dyeing processes are extremely polluting, so much so that the manufacture and use of
synthetic dyes are two of the world‟s most polluting industries.
• The dyeing process generally involves a range of toxic chemicals such as dioxins, which are
carcinogenic and possibly disrupt hormones; toxic heavy metals such as chrome, cobalt, copper and
zinc which are known carcinogens; and formaldehyde, a suspected carcinogen.
• On average, each kilo of finished fabric needs between 80 and 100 litres to dye it. A t-shirt weighs
around 200 grams, meaning each one pollutes 16-20 litres of water.
• Every year the global textile industry discharges 40,000 - 50,000 tons of dye resulting in
approximately 20% of freshwater pollution.
• In India, 450,000 children die annually from diseases contracted by drinking contaminated water
whereas half of the world's hospital beds are occupied by patients suffering from waterborne diseases.

9. Tons of toxic dyes are being dumped into our rivers
everyday!!

10. The Organic HOPE!!
Choosing organic delivers proven benefits for people and the environment.
When it comes to making sustainability claims you can trust, nothing beats organic apparels.

11. Benefits Of Organic Cotton Farming
• It uses organic fertilizers and pesticides and strictly limits use of synthetic
fertilizers, pesticides, plant growth hormones, livestock antibiotics, food
Organic Cotton Farming
additives, genetically modified organisms and nano-materials.
• It uses less water, preserving a scarce and precious resource for the future. 80% of
organic production is rain fed rather than irrigated, so organic cotton preserves important
groundwater stores. By eliminating the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, the
water pollution impact of organic cotton production has been shown to be 98% less than
conventional cotton production.
• It relies on techniques such as crop rotation, green manure, compost and biological pest
control that sustain the fertility of soil increasing its water retention capacity making it
more resilient in floods and drought.
• It combats climate change. By eliminating the use of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides and
nitrogen inputs, organic cotton farming produces up to 94% less greenhouse gas
emissions. Organic practices turn soils into a carbon „sink‟, removing CO2 from the
atmosphere protecting the fragile ecosystem.

12. Benefits Of Organic Cotton Farming
• It improves food security for farmers and their families as they grow a diversity of crops
to maintain the fertility of the soil. It provides the source of food enabling farmers to feed
Organic Cotton Farming
themselves all year round as well as an extra source of income.
• By removing toxic insecticides & pesticides from cotton farming, organic cotton
empowers millions of farmers to be economically strong by reducing the input farms cost
and increasing the revenue sources helping them to pay off their debts.
• It has immensely helped the farmers to get rid of the grave threats from the hazardous
fertilizers and pesticides ensuring the health and safety of their families.

13. Organic Cotton : It is not just a fabric but a blessing for
the people and the environment

14. Benefits Of Bamboo Farming
• Bamboo farming does not require any use of pesticides and insecticides. It also requires
very little water and can survive drought conditions as well as flooding, making it one of
the most environmentally responsible and sustainable farming.
• Bamboo plantations are large factories of photosynthesis which reduces greenhouse
Bamboo Farming
gases. A bamboo plant absorbs about 5 times the amount of carbon dioxide and produces
about 35% more oxygen than an equivalent tree.
• Bamboo farming reclaims land because of its rapid growth and root structure. It
replenishes the land destroyed by overgrazing and cleans the soil from toxins.
• Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants in the world, making it a high yield
renewable resource and is capable of complete regeneration without need to replant it.
• Bamboo farming is one of the most economically sustainable farming with minimal
input costs requiring no synthetic fertilizers and re-harvesting. It also ensures the health
of the land as well as their families from the ill effects of toxic pesticides.

15. Bamboo : A remedy for our vulnerable planet!!

16. Benefits Of Eco-Friendly Dyeing
• It is an ancient method of Indian Heritage dating back approximately 4000 years when
there were no synthetic and toxic chemicals to dye the fabrics.
Herbal Dyeing
• Herbal dyeing extracts natural colors from medicinally rich herbs, plants, flowers, fruits,
stems, barks and minerals making the whole production cycle devoid of any chemical use
with almost no carbon footprint.
• Herbal dyes are not only biodegradable, but also have medicinal properties like anti-
bacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic which are beneficial for the skin of the
person using it.
• It ensures that the discharge is devoid of any toxic chemicals and heavy metals
protecting the precious water sources.

17. Benefits Of Eco-Friendly Dyeing
Herbal Dyeing
• GOTS approved dyeing prohibits amine releasing azo dyes that are carcinogenic in
nature. 22 such amines have been banned. The dyes which are classified as allergenic and
GOTS Approved Dyeing
the ones containing heavy metals are strictly prohibited. The quantity of the usage of
other toxic chemicals involved in the dyeing has also been restricted.
• It ensures that the discharge from the dyeing units meet strict biodegradability
and toxicity requirements.
• It ensures that all dyeing units have waste water treatment plants to process the
discharge removing toxic chemicals and heavy metals protecting local ecosystems and
water supplies.
