    Perhaps it seems, apparel and organic, and environmental protection seem unrelated. However, many people do not realize is that a lot of production of raw materials such as cotton clothing, ramie and other stages in the plant are widely used pesticides, fertilizers and herbicides, pollution of the environment. Storage of raw materials, the use of preservatives such as pentachlorophenol, mildew, moth agent; in the weaving process, the use of oxidant, catalyst, detergent; in dyeing and printing, the use of azo dyes, formaldehyde and halogenated goods. According to “International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements,” Statistics show that every three kilograms used in the manufacture of cotton T-shirt and jeans, some need to consume 1 kg of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and accounted for 3% of world agricultural production of cotton growing land, but use more than 25% of the pesticide, the pesticide residue on the cotton can imagine, the human body in contact with too many clothes with such cotton production, such as in the skin may cause varying degrees of damage, at the same time, a large number of pesticides and chemical fertilizers on groundwater pollution, it is shocking. From cotton to clothing, there are pollution crisis in the middle, such as slightly yellow color to make the original cotton (raw cotton color) become white as snow, most will chlorine bleaching, in this process will cause cancer, In addition to environmental pollution, but also cause harm to producers. Using traditional methods of production of clothing to the environment, raw material producers, consumers three victims, therefore, beneficial to human health and the environment has attracted increasing attention of organic clothing and fashion today, is interpreted as wave surge.

Because of its protection of the ecological environment and promoting the development of human health and environmental protection to meet people’s demand for eco-apparel consumption is important, increasingly popular.
    Recently, an environmental group is being launched to promote a “viable clothes” activities. Organizers called on everyone to “low carbon” dress, “low carbon loading” means that each person consumes the entire process of garment produced less carbon emissions, and a clothes would fly to increase the usage of each garment. Change people’s consumption concept, the textile and garment industry will bring new changes and affect more and more, “organic.”
    ”Today’s consumers also prefer to spend more to buy environmentally safe products.” In the China Textile Industry Association Du Chau seems, now a major aesthetic change is greater emphasis on “Natural Beauty” concerned about the harmonious relationship between man and nature. If the production process of nature, ecological destructive, even if the product is very special, consumers will reject.
