Don't forget the United Nations Climate Conference today!

The United Nations Climate Conference serves as a meeting for political parties all over the world to discuss climate change.  With this summer's extreme weather attributed to climate change (http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2012/jul/10/extreme-weather-manmade-climate-change), and in light of the disastrous floods we are seeing here in the UK this week, this year's conference particularly resonates with us.

Just small, daily lifestyle changes soon make for big results when it comes to climate change.  We're pleased to be able to help customers make these small changes, by offering ethical fabrics that improve both our environment and the lives of the people who make them.

We're looking forwards to hearing more from the event, and you can find out more here: http://unfccc.int/2860.php

ORGANIC COTTON | Some little fashion facts

Cotton is farmed in around 90 countries worldwide and Organic cotton is farmed in around 22 counties worldwide. For cotton to be considered truly 'organic' with an organic symbol it has to be verified by independent certification bodies that check the standards of production and manufacturing. 

The biggest benefit of Organic cotton is to ensure cotton farmers get fair pay for their work as well as better working standards. Regular Cotton uses pesticides to ensure no nasty pests get on the crops but these pesticides often have harmful toxins that cause the death of around 22,000 cotton farmers each year whereas Organic cotton only uses natural pesticides that are safe for farmers to use whilst still being effective.
