me: so what is it made of
shop: plastic -
remind me again how many animals are harmed in the production of cotton or linen
-
@schratze to be fair, a lot of insects and possibly some birds, harmed by the pesticides used to grow the cotton
and I'm not sure whether the chemicals¹ used to ret the linen or other bast fibers also harm animals or only the workers
still less than those harmed by microplastic in the seas and elsewhere
¹ it is possible to process them with just water and time. afaik it's too much time for mainstream commercial production
