What advantages does Cotton have over Synthetic Cloth?
Following are the drawbacks of using synthetic fibre over natural fibres like cotton.
Most fabric used in "Fast Fashion" is made from petroleum. Synthetic fabrics such as Polyester, Acrylic, Nylon, Spandex and Acetate are all made from non-renewable fossil fuels. The production of these synthetic fabrics is emission-intensive and environmentally degrading.
They catch fire very easily, will burn away in no time, mostly synthetic fibre shrink when they come in contact with flame.
We cant exclusively use only man-made fibre because man-made fibre does not allow air to pass through does making the Fabric very hot.
