Eco'Ganik Sweatshirt

What's not to love about this 100 percent organic cotton hoodie by Eco'ganik? Conventional cotton is hands-down the most toxic crop in the world, using 3 to 5 percent of the world’s farmland but consuming 25 percent of all chemical pesticides and fertilizers. Even when agricultural chemicals are properly applied by experienced workers who adhere to regulations, the run-off from fields and crop-dusting planes still dissolve into adjacent rivers, lakes, wetlands, and ground water, which can result in the loss and fragmentation of ecosystems. (In 1995, pesticide-contaminated run-off from cotton fields killed at least 240,000 fish in Alabama. Pesticides also unintentionally kill at least 67 million birds in the U.S. each year.) The puffed sleeves are merely the icing on the cake.
