One of my favorite projects that I came across in 2017 doing research about water consumption of cotton:
20,000 liters per kilogram of cotton according to WWF
The synthetic polymer alternatives (polyamides, polyesters) are all based on fossil resources and not acceptable.
The alternative choice of wood fibres is amazing!
The start-up from Germany sources German wood and does all the manufacturing in the EU meaning they are produced fair!
They claim to reduce the CO2 footprint by 600 gram and they save 1000 L water and 150 mL chemicals per T-shirt compared to cotton!
Fantastic! Please check them out!
