Cradle to Cradle – Composting Your T-Shirt


“Cradle to Cradle: Composting Your T-Shirt” briefly describes cradle to cradle design, using the example of a cotton T-shirt as an item made mostly from biologic nutrients that cannot usually be composted. Common synthetic inputs, not always disclosed on textile labels, prevent the T-shirt from remaining in a closed loop biologic cycle. The author supports mimicking nature to better design everyday items as a method of waste reduction and environmental health.
