Whenever I want to buy clothing, I think about the rivers that are poisoned with the dyes used in manufacturing.

Whenever I want to buy a new electronic device, I think about the children dying from mining rare earth mineral.

Whenever I want to buy packaged food, I think about the marine life dying from the "recyclable" plastic.

Then I often don't buy these things. That's very bad for billionaires. So they don't want us thinking about these things. That's why you don't see coverage of them in corporate media.

@chu speaking of dye... One thing that I have thought of is why there doesn't seem to be a market for unbleached/undyed clothes. Don't get me wrong. I love me a pair of blue jeans. But... Raw cotton seems to me like it would be really cool too.

@oceaniceternity

I know there's a bit of a market for organic, undyed cotton. You can pay premium for it for things like nut milk bags... so it definitely exists. Why not clothing?

It'll probably take some time.

The colour of undyed cotton I associate with ancient Chinese mourning attire (found a pic below... probably from some B rate drama)

The Chinese market for this colour will definitely not be easy.
