cotton sustainability initiatives

Cotton sustainability initiatives aim to grow and produce cotton in ways that protect the environment, support farmers, and ensure fair labor practices. These programs promote using less water and chemicals, adopting eco-friendly farming methods, and reducing waste. They also encourage fair wages and safe working conditions for workers. By certifying cotton as sustainable—such as through certifications like Better Cotton Initiative or Organic Cotton—companies and consumers can choose products that prioritize environmental health, social responsibility, and economic fairness, helping to create a more sustainable and ethical global textile industry.
