@ninja This is a great piece too. Thank you for sharing.
@sky_scat I try to avoid as much plastic as possible. And that, my friend, is VERY difficult. I've come to loathe the stuff.
There is another aspect of clothing to consider. Along with the direct impact from the production of clothing, there is also the impact from keeping clothing clean. Clothing made from synthetic fibers is a substantial source of microfiber pollution which is shed during the washing process, along with the microplastics contained in laundry detergent products.
