Description
Plain and simple best describes our 100% organic cotton shopping bag.
Multiple
uses can be found for these totes, but one of the greenest things you
could do would be to keep three or four of these handy whenever you go
to the store.
Forget about the dilemma of “Paper or plastic?”.
Our
shopping bags will save you a nickel or so at most stores, they will
save trees, and most importantly, you will never have to worry about
whether one more plastic shopping bag is floating somewhere it should
not be.
So why should you buy organic cotton?
If there is
one action you can take to be more environmentally friendly, changing
your shopping choices to include organic cotton can have a tremendous
positive impact on both the Planet, and quite possibly your health.
As soft and comfy as cotton is, the cultivation of non-organic cotton is a toxic nightmare.
Over one quarter of all the pesticides used in agriculture are applied to the modern cotton plant.
This stuff contains some of the nastiest compounds known to man, including cyanide.
Of
the nine major pesticides used on cotton five are proven cancer-causing
chemicals and all nine are classified by the EPA as type 1 and 2 – the
most dangerous listing possible.
After so many years of growing
in these toxins the modern cotton plant has been genetically engineered
to the point where it is no longer a natural fiber, but rather a plant
that is designed to stand up to the strains of the pesticides sprayed
on it.
Do yourself and the Planet a favor, switch to organic cotton.
Our Organic Cotton Shopping Bags are great for carrying groceries, books, beach gear, or whatever.
