					<description><![CDATA[Denim is one of the most popular and ubiquitous fabrics globally, and the fashion industry heavily relies on it. However, the production of denim has a significant environmental impact, from water usage to chemical pollution. Therefore, the need for sustainable denim production has become more pressing as the world moves towards more sustainable practices. In the last Premier Vision Denim fair in Milan we met many Pakistani realities selling denim. This article aims to explore the challenges faced by Pakistan in achieving sustainable denim production and the strategies employed to overcome them. Denim in Pakistan: A Blue Gold Rush Pakistan is the third largest preferred cotton-producing countries* in 2019/2020, after Brazil and India. The country is considered as a significantly large producer and exporter of denim, with a long history of textile manufacturing, and is home to several denim mills and factories which produce denim fabrics, garments, and accessories for domestic and international markets. The denim industry in Pakistan has grown significantly in recent years, thanks to the country&#8217;s large labor force, competitive prices, and favorable trade agreements with major markets like the United States and the European Union. *defined by the list of recognized standards. Includes: ABRAPA, BASF e3, Better Cotton Initiative (BCI), Cleaner Cotton, Cotton made in Africa (CmiA), Fairtrade, Fairtrade Organic, Field to Market, In-Conversion Cotton (Transitional in USA), ISCC, myBMP, Organic, REEL Cotton, Regenerative Cotton, and the USCTP. Environmental Impact of Denim Production  Denim production significantly contributes to Pakistan&#8217;s economy but has adverse environmental impacts. Which are five environmental impacts of denim production in Pakistan? Water pollution A major environmental impacts of denim production is water pollution. During denim production, large amounts of chemicals are used to dye and treat the fabric. These chemicals can contaminate the water used in production, leading to pollution of nearby water sources such as rivers and streams. The polluted water can harm aquatic life and people&#8217;s health relying on these water sources for drinking and irrigation. Energy consumption The production of denim requires a considerable amount of energy. The energy is used to power the various machines used in production, including spinning, weaving, and dyeing machines. This energy consumption increases greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to climate change. Land use Denim production requires large land for cotton cultivation. Using agricultural land for cotton cultivation can lead to deforestation, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss. Waste generation The denim production process generates a significant amount of waste, including leftover cotton fibers, yarns, and chemicals. These wastes can end up in landfills or be disposed of improperly, leading to further environmental degradation. Human health The use of chemicals in denim production can have adverse effects on the health of workers and nearby communities. Exposure to these chemicals can cause respiratory problems, skin irritation, and other health issues. Sustainable Practices in Denim Production in Pakistan  Like in many other countries, denim production in Pakistan has historically been associated with various environmental and social challenges. Whereas, in recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the need for sustainable practices in denim production, which can help minimize the negative impact on the environment and improve the social conditions of workers involved in the production process. Here are some sustainable practices in denim production in Pakistan: Water conservation Denim production is a water-intensive process, and in many cases, water is discharged untreated into nearby water bodies, causing pollution. To address this issue, many denim producers in Pakistan are adopting water conservation measures, such as recycling and reusing water in different stages of production, implementing closed-loop systems, and using low-water dyeing technologies. These practices can significantly reduce the amount of freshwater used in denim production and minimize the risk of water pollution. Energy efficiency Denim production requires a significant amount of energy, mainly for heating, cooling, and powering machinery. To reduce energy consumption, many denim producers in Pakistan are investing in energy-efficient technologies, such as LED lighting, heat recovery systems, and renewable energy sources like solar and wind power. Using renewable energy sources, denim producers can reduce their reliance on fossil fuels and minimize their carbon footprint. Chemical management Denim production involves the use of a variety of chemicals, including dyes, finishing agents, and detergents, which can have harmful effects on human health and the environment. To ensure safe use of chemicals, many denim producers in Pakistan are adopting chemical management practices, such as using safer and more eco-friendly chemicals, implementing closed-loop systems for chemical recycling, and ensuring proper disposal of hazardous waste. Fair labour practices Denim production in Pakistan, like in many other countries, has been associated with labor rights violations, including low wages, long working hours, and poor working conditions. To address these issues, many denim producers in Pakistan are adopting fair labor practices, such as providing workers with safe and healthy working conditions, ensuring fair wages and benefits, and promoting gender equality and diversity in the workplace. Product traceability Denim production involves complex global supply chains, making it difficult to trace the origin of materials and ensure responsible sourcing practices. To promote transparency and accountability in the supply chain, many denim producers in Pakistan are implementing product traceability systems, like block chain technology and RFID tags, which allow them to track the origin of materials and ensure they meet environmental and social standards. Challenges in Implementing Sustainable Practices  Implementing sustainable practices in Pakistan presents several challenges that require careful consideration and planning. A major challenge is the lack of awareness about sustainable practices among the general population. As a result, many people in Pakistan are unaware of the importance of sustainable practices and how they can contribute to preserving the environment. Another challenge is the lack of regulatory framework and enforcement mechanisms to ensure compliance with sustainable practices. This creates a situation where many businesses and industries continue to operate in a manner that is detrimental to the environment. Additionally, lack of resources and funding for implementing sustainable practices can make it difficult for businesses and organizations to invest in sustainable solutions. Finally, cultural and social norms in Pakistan can also pose challenges to adopting sustainable practices, as some practices may conflict with traditional values and beliefs. Addressing these challenges require a multi-faceted approach that includes awareness campaigns, stronger regulatory frameworks, increased funding and resources, and engagement with local communities to promote understanding and acceptance of sustainable practices. Success Stories in Sustainable Denim Production in Pakistan  Pakistan&#8217;s denim industry has made significant progress in adopting sustainable practices in recent years. Here are three success stories in sustainable denim production in Pakistan: * Artistic Milliners Artistic Milliners is a leading denim manufacturer in Pakistan that has made significant strides in sustainable denim production. The company has invested in sustainable technologies, such as laser printing and ozone washes, to reduce water consumption and chemical use in manufacturing. They have also implemented a closed-loop production system that recycles water and reduces waste. * Soorty Enterprises Soorty Enterprises is another Pakistani denim manufacturer implementing sustainable practices in its production processes. The company&#8217;s dedicated sustainability department reduces water, chemical, and energy consumption. Soorty has also implemented a water recycling program, which has helped the company reduce its water usage by 40%. * Naveena Denim Naveena Denim is a Pakistani denim manufacturer that has invested significantly in sustainable practices. The company has installed a wastewater treatment plant that recycles 100% of the wastewater generated during production. Naveena has also implemented a sustainable chemical management program, which ensures that all chemicals used in the manufacturing process are safe for workers and the environment. Additionally, the company has implemented energy-efficient practices, such as using solar panels to power its factories. The Future of Sustainable Denim Production in Pakistan  The future of sustainable denim production in Pakistan is closely tied to the fashion industry&#8217;s increasing focus on sustainability. Denim sustainability has become a key priority for many fashion brands as they seek to reduce the environmental impact of their products. Cotton sustainability is also critical, as cotton is the primary raw material used in denim production. In addition to environmental concerns, modern slavery is a significant issue in the textile industry, and brands must ensure that their denim is produced ethically. Textile dyeing is another area where sustainable practices can have a significant impact, as traditional dyeing methods can be highly polluting. As the fashion industry continues to prioritize sustainability, Pakistan&#8217;s denim producers must adopt sustainable practices to remain competitive and meet the demands of environmentally conscious consumers. Pakistani textile companies are just beginning to incorporate Sustainable Business Practices. Not only for the pressure of market forces such as competition and demand (in order to compete in the global market, textile producers must satisfy customers’ environmental demands), but also because textile companies are under the regulatory pressure, for example by European Union’s (EU’s) Scheme of Generalized Scheme of Preferences Plus (GSP+) to avail duty free export to EU. Textile firms are continuously striving hard to adopt sustainable business practices. Net Zero Pakistan, for example, is a national partnership involving cutting-edge businesses, government organizations, and sectoral specialists to achieve Pakistan’s objective of net zero carbon by 2050. 23 signatories of this partnership have committed and set net zero targets, affirmed to measure and disclose transparently the levels and sources of GHG emissions, vowed to decarbonize value chains and lastly have shown interest in advocating for climate action. The textile sector is also actively engaging in international conventions and platforms such as ‘Better Work Programme’, ‘Decent Work Country Programme-IV (2023-27)’, ‘The Accord on Fire and Building Safety’ (source: All Pakistan Textile Mills Association). Achieving sustainable denim production in Pakistan requires a collective effort from all stakeholders in the industry. While progress has been made in adopting eco-friendly practices, there are still challenges to overcome such as the high cost of sustainable materials and limited access to technology. To address these challenges, manufacturers must invest in research and development, collaborate with international brands and experts, and prioritize the health and safety of workers. As consumers, we can promote sustainable denim production by buying from brands that prioritize sustainability and ethical practices. We can build a more sustainable and responsible denim industry in Pakistan and beyond by working together. &#8211; From our Pakistani correspondent &#8211; Note: the textile industry in Pakistan has been facing a crisis in the last months of 2022 causing a drop of textile exports.

					<description><![CDATA[Italiano/English below Puoi ascoltare qui l&#8217;articolo: Magliette uomo Le giornate estive si avvicinano, tempo di maniche corte e di cotone. Si stimano però 2.500–2.700 litri di acqua necessari per produrre una maglietta, principalmente perché la coltivazione del cotone è ad alta intensità idrica, nella metà dei casi in aree in cui le precipitazioni piovane non sono sufficienti per la sua crescita. Oltre a sottrarre una preziosa risorsa agli essere umani, l&#8217;utilizzo intensivo di acqua sconvolge gli ecosistemi locali, con conseguenze sulle caratteristiche del suolo e sul mantenimento della biodiversità mettendo a rischio specie animali. Inoltre, la coltivazione di cotone è responsabile del consumo di fertilizzanti, pesticidi e insetticidi tossici, che possono rappresentare un grave rischio per la salute e l&#8217;ambiente, contaminando il suolo e le risorse idriche limitrofe alle colture. La produzione di cotone è responsabile del 18% dell&#8217;utilizzo di pesticidi nel mondo e del 25% di insetticidi (fonte delle percentuali: The True Cost). La coltivazione riguarda anche l’aspetto sociale: il salario dei lavoratori, il coinvolgimento di minori nella raccolta, le condizioni di lavoro e i rischi per la salute (per l’inalazione di sostanze tossiche). Quasi la totalità dei lavoratori nelle coltivazioni di cotone vive e lavora nei paesi in via di sviluppo, dove le tutele sono carenti. Episodi di schiavitù sono tutt&#8217;ora purtroppo presenti (qui puoi leggere di ciò che accade in Turkmenistan e Uzbekistan: Oltre un milione costretti a raccogliere cotone). Quali alternative abbiamo? Possiamo cercare magliette prodotte con impegno nel rispetto di persone e ambiente. Per favorire acquisti più responsabili e la scelta di una moda più sostenibile, vi proponiamo alcuni marchi e negozi che si danno da fare per ridurre l&#8217;impatto negativo delle t-shirt da uomo (ma non solo!).

However, an estimated 2,500–2,700 liters of water are needed to produce a t-shirt, mainly because the cultivation of cotton is water-intensive, in half of the cases in areas where rainfall is not sufficient for its growth. In addition to stealing a precious resource from human beings, the intensive use of water destroys local ecosystems, with consequences on the characteristics of the soil and on the maintenance of biodiversity, putting animal species at risk. Furthermore, the cultivation of cotton is responsible for the consumption of fertilizers, pesticides and toxic insecticides, which can pose a serious risk to health and the environment, contaminating the soil and water resources adjacent to the crops. Cotton production is responsible for 18% of the use of pesticides worldwide and 25% of insecticides (percentage source: The True Cost). Cultivation also concerns the social aspect: workers&#8217; wages, the involvement of minors in the harvest, working conditions and health risks (for the inhalation of toxic substances). Almost all cotton workers live and work in developing countries, where protections are lacking. Slavery episodes are unfortunately still present (here you can read about what happens in Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan: More than one million forced to pick cotton). What alternatives do we have? We can look for t-shirts produced with commitment in respect of people and the environment. To encourage more responsible purchases and the choice of a more sustainable fashion, we show you some brands and shops that work to reduce the negative impact of men t-shirts (but not only!).

<h5><span style="color: #acc0a5;"><em>English</em> &#8211; More sustainable men&#8217;s T-shirts: 8 addresses where to find them and why choose them instead of traditional cotton ones</span></h5>
<p>Summer days are approaching, time of short sleeves and cotton. However, an estimated 2,500–2,700 liters of water are needed to produce a t-shirt, mainly because <strong>the cultivation of cotton is water-intensive</strong>, in half of the cases in areas where rainfall is not sufficient for its growth. In addition to stealing a precious resource from human beings, <strong>the intensive use of water destroys local ecosystems</strong>, with consequences on the characteristics of the soil and on the maintenance of biodiversity, putting animal species at risk. Furthermore, the cultivation of cotton is responsible for the consumption of <strong>fertilizers, pesticides and toxic insecticides</strong>, which can pose <strong>a serious risk to health and the environment</strong>, contaminating the soil and water resources adjacent to the crops. Cotton production is responsible for 18% of the use of pesticides worldwide and 25% of insecticides (percentage source: <em>The True Cost</em>). Cultivation also concerns the social aspect: <strong>workers&#8217; wages, the involvement of minors in the harvest, working conditions and health risks</strong> (for the inhalation of toxic substances). Almost all cotton workers live and work in developing countries, where protections are lacking. Slavery episodes are unfortunately still present (here you can read about what happens in Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan: <a href="https://dress-ecode.com/2019/03/07/oltre-un-milione-costretti-a-raccogliere-cotone-la-schiavitu-in-uzbekistan-e-turkmenistan-dietro-i-nostri-vestiti/">More than one million forced to pick cotton</a>).</p>
<p>What alternatives do we have? We can look for <strong>t-shirts produced with commitment in respect of people and the environment</strong>. To encourage more responsible purchases and the choice of a more sustainable fashion, we show you some brands and shops that work to reduce the negative impact of men t-shirts (but not only!).</p>

					<description><![CDATA[For English see below Quando ho visto per la prima volta il video di Bushbells, ho notato subito l&#8217;impegno che questo piccolo progetto mette nel cercare di inglobare il maggior numero possibile di Obiettivi di sviluppo sostenibile delle Nazioni Unite. Ho incontrato la proprietario e co-fondatrice di Bushbells, Jax Comyn, alla cerimonia Be The Change Awards 2019. Be The Change è un&#8217;iniziativa nata come collaborazione tra il marchio di abbigliamento etico Where Does It Come From? di Jo Salter e della comunità online Ethical Hour di Sian Conway (per leggere riguardo l&#8217;evento Storie di marchi che decidono di fare la differenza). Bushbells era uno dei marchi finalisti del premio. Parlando con Jax, si può percepire la sua passione e motivazione a fornire un&#8217;educazione continua a una piccola comunità costiera a Watamu, in Kenya. Mi racconta che l&#8217;intera filosofia di Bushbells è nata per cercare di aiutare un amico, Sammy, che era rimasto vedovo con figli piccoli da mantenere, oltre ad aiutare un altro ambientalista a costruire la sua scuola. Jax e la sua squadra di Bushbells in Inghilterra, vendono indumenti in cotone kikoy che Sammy e il suo team producono in Kenya. I profitti derivanti da queste vendite finanziano i progetti educativi. Contraddistinguono il marchio i tessuti di cotone kikoy dai colori vivaci,  trasformati in pull-on (pantaloni senza bottoni/cerniera) che possono essere indossati all&#8217;interno, all&#8217;esterno, in spiaggia. Sono vestiti comodi, per il relax, allegri e si sa che con l&#8217;acquisto si sta aiutando direttamente un piccolo gruppo di lavoratori. Con il loro successo, hanno completato la prima scuola Bushbells (omonima) nel 2014 e una seconda scuola Bluebells, che è a più della metà della costruzione. Quali aspetti sostenibili ed etici includono? Nella scuola: Utilizzano luce ad energia solare. Compostano. Hanno un pozzo con pompa a energia solare. Piantano alberi. Hanno avviato un orto nella scuola così gli alunni seguono la crescita degli ortaggi. Riciclano. Anche le finestre provengono da materiali riciclati (vetro dalle bottiglie). Riusano gli scarti di tessuti dalla produzione dei vestiti, per esempio per realizzare corde per saltare e cuscini per la scuola.  Riutilizzano i tessuti rimanenti dai vestiti che creano (per fare corde per saltare e cuscini per la scuola). Gli alunni sono coinvolti in progetti educativi per insegnare loro a ridurre l&#8217;inquinamento dalla plastica e la pulizia della spiaggia. Ogni anno gli studenti partecipano al World Beach Clean Up Day e solitamente ottengono il primo premio dal comune di Watamu, dato che sono tutti così entusiasti. Quest&#8217;anno sono stati i primi a salire bordo del viaggio inaugurale di Flipiflopi, un&#8217;imbarcazione realizzata completamente in plastica e infradito riciclate. Bushbells collabora anche a stretto contatto con organizzazioni locali come Watamu Marine Association (che ha un impianto di riciclo della plastica) e Ocean Trust. Lavorano tutti insieme per mantenere questa bellissima parte del mondo e &#8220;Watamu&#8221; significa letteralmente &#8220;acque dolci&#8221;, mi dice Jax. I profitti delle vendite di Bushbells aiutano a continuare a fornire la colazione a 85 studenti al giorno, oltre a offrire 11 borse di studio a bambini che ne hanno necessità per andare a scuola. Inoltre, vengono acquistati nuovi libri di studio e le aule vengono costruite se necessario. Una nuova piccola biblioteca e un&#8217;altra classe sono state completate quest&#8217;anno. Amano avere persone che fanno volontariato nella scuola &#8211; il che a sua volta offre ai volontari un&#8217;esperienza preziosa di questo piccolo progetto comunitario nelle aree più povere. Gli obiettivi di sviluppo sostenibile delle Nazioni Unite coinvolti in questa iniziativa? 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 12, 14 e 15. Un gran numero! Questo progetto è in corso da poco più di 10 anni. Sammy e il suo team di sarti ora sono in 4, più Enoch, addetto alla lavorazione e riparazione della pelle che produce cinture e collari. &#8220;È un&#8217;attività molto piccola e molto diretta, vendiamo una cintura, ne ordiniamo un&#8217;altra&#8221;, afferma Jax. &#8220;Probabilmente potremmo costruire più aule più velocemente se avessimo una squadra di sarti più numerosa per fare più vestiti da vendere, ma piano piano, non c&#8217;è fretta e non stiamo cercando di competere con i capi di abbigliamento di grandi marche. Siamo orgogliosi di sapere &#8216;chi fatto i vestiti&#8217; e da dove vengono esattamente&#8221;. Jax aggiunge anche quanto sia orgogliosa di sua madre, &#8220;Mama Anna&#8221;, di quasi 80 anni, e del meraviglioso lavoro che fa per garantire il buon funzionamento dei progetti. &#8220;I sarti sono i veri eroi &#8211; così devoti, così leali, lavorano così duramente. Puoi vedere i loro adorabili volti sorridenti (Lilian, Ruth and Rehema e il maestro sarto Sammy) tutti sul nostro sito o pagine di instagram&#8221;. Abbiamo chiesto a Jax le sfide che devono affrontare. Ammette di avere molti concorrenti che vendono prodotti simili. Ma assicura che andrà avanti, poiché sa che il suo lavoro è buono e i frutti delle sue fatiche sono i sorridenti bambini che ricevono un&#8217;istruzione di prima categoria. &#8220;Questa è la forza trainante quando le cose sembrano diventare difficili!&#8221;. E l&#8217;altra sfida è assicurare il futuro ai sarti: &#8220;Io e mia madre sentiamo che stiamo diventando troppo grandi per proseguire, ma rimango ottimista sul fatto che si presenteranno le giuste opportunità&#8221;. Più sotto il video del progetto e le foto dei loro felici. Grazie Jax (e sua madre) per l&#8217;impegno in questo progetto. Più sotto il video del progetto e le foto dei prodotti. Link al sito English &#8211; Bushbells: colourful and &#8220;happy&#8221; clothes for a great educational sustainable project When I first viewed the entry from Bushbells I immediately noticed the commitment this little project makes in trying to address as many of the UN Sustainable Development goals as possible.  I met the owner and co-founder of Bushbells, Jax Comyn, at the Be The Change Awards 2019.  Be The Change is an initiative born as a collaboration between the ethical clothing brand Where Does It Come From? of Jo Salter  and the online community Ethical Hour of Sian Conway (you can read here about the event Stories of brands that decide to make the difference).  Bushbells was one of the finalist brands of the award. Talking to Jax, you can see her passion and drive to provide ongoing education for a small coastal community in Watamu, Kenya.  She told me that the whole ethos of Bushbells was born out of trying to help a friend Sammy, who&#8217;d been widowed and had young children to support, as well as help another environmentalist  build his school.  Jax and her Bushbells team in England, sell the beautiful kikoy cotton clothes that Sammy and his team make in Kenya, and profits from these sales provide the funding for the educational projects.  The brand&#8217;s signature are the brightly coloured kikoy cottons, that are made into pull-ons which can be worn &#8216;inside, outside, beachside, fireside. They&#8217;re comfortable, relaxed, happy clothes and you know that with your purchase you are directly helping a small team of workers. With their success, they completed their first school (and namesake) Bushbells in 2014, and a second, sister school, Bluebells,  is more than half way through construction.  Which sustainable and ethical aspects they embrace? At the school:  They use solar-powered light. They compost. They have a well with a solar-powered pump (literally just completed two week&#8217;s ago from kind funding). They plant trees. They have a vegetable garden in the school where pupils can see vegetables growing. They recycle. Even the windows come from recycled materials (glass from bottles). They reuse left-over fabrics from the clothes they make (to make skipping ropes and cushions for the school). Pupils are taken on educational projects to teach them about  reducing plastic pollution and beach clean-ups.  Every year the pupils from the school take part in the &#8216;world wide beach clean up day&#8217; and usually win first prize from Watamu,  as they are all so keen. This year, they were first on-board the maiden voyage of Flipiflopi, a dhow made completely out of recycled plastic and recycled flip-flops. Bushbells also collaborates closely  with local organizations such as Watamu Marine Association (which has a plastic recycling plant) and Ocean Trust.   They all work together to maintain this beautiful part of the world, and &#8216;Watamu&#8217; literally means &#8216;sweet waters&#8217;, Jax tells me. The profits from Bushbells sales helps them continue to provide a breakfast club for 85 students daily, as well as provide 11 bursaries for children who need them to go to school. In addition new curriculum books are purchased and classrooms built if needed. A new lock up library and another classroom were completed in the new year. They love having people to volunteer at the school &#8211; which in turn gives the volunteers valuable experience first hand of this little community project in the poorest of areas. The UN Sustainable Development goals involved in this initiative? 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 12, 14 and 15. A stunning number! This project has been going for just over 10 years. Sammy and his team of tailors now number 4, plus Enoch, the leather worker who makes belts and collars. &#8220;It&#8217;s very small and very direct. We sell a belt.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>For English see below</em></p>
<p>Quando ho visto per la prima volta il video di Bushbells, ho notato subito l&#8217;impegno che questo piccolo progetto mette nel cercare di inglobare il maggior numero possibile di <a href="https://www.un.org/sustainabledevelopment/blog/2015/12/sustainable-development-goals-kick-off-with-start-of-new-year/">Obiettivi di sviluppo sostenibile</a> delle Nazioni Unite. Ho incontrato la proprietario e co-fondatrice di Bushbells, Jax Comyn, alla cerimonia Be The Change Awards 2019. Be The Change è un&#8217;iniziativa nata come collaborazione tra il marchio di abbigliamento etico <a href="https://www.wheredoesitcomefrom.co.uk">Where Does It Come From?</a> di Jo Salter e della comunità online <a href="https://ethicalhour.co.uk">Ethical Hour </a>di Sian Conway (per leggere riguardo l&#8217;evento <a href="https://dress-ecode.com/2019/05/01/storie-di-brand-che-decidono-di-fare-la-differenza-be-the-change-awards-1/">Storie di marchi che decidono di fare la differenza</a>). Bushbells era uno dei marchi finalisti del premio.</p>
<p>Parlando con Jax, si può percepire la sua passione e motivazione a fornire <strong>un&#8217;educazione continua a una piccola comunità costiera a Watamu,</strong> in Kenya. Mi racconta che l&#8217;intera filosofia di Bushbells è nata per cercare di aiutare un amico, Sammy, che era rimasto vedovo con figli piccoli da mantenere, oltre ad aiutare un altro ambientalista a costruire la sua scuola. Jax e la sua squadra di Bushbells in Inghilterra, vendono indumenti in cotone kikoy che Sammy e il suo team producono in Kenya. <strong>I profitti derivanti da queste vendite finanziano i progetti educativi</strong>. Contraddistinguono il marchio i tessuti di cotone kikoy dai colori vivaci,  trasformati in pull-on (pantaloni senza bottoni/cerniera) che possono essere indossati all&#8217;interno, all&#8217;esterno, in spiaggia. Sono vestiti comodi, per il relax, allegri e si sa che con l&#8217;acquisto si sta aiutando direttamente un piccolo gruppo di lavoratori.</p>
<p>Con il loro successo, hanno completato la prima scuola Bushbells (omonima) nel 2014 e una seconda scuola Bluebells, che è a più della metà della costruzione. <strong>Quali aspetti sostenibili ed etici includono?</strong> Nella scuola:</p>
<ul>
<li>Utilizzano luce ad energia solare.</li>
<li>Compostano.</li>
<li>Hanno un pozzo con pompa a energia solare.</li>
<li>Piantano alberi.</li>
<li>Hanno avviato un orto nella scuola così gli alunni seguono la crescita degli ortaggi.</li>
<li>Riciclano. Anche le finestre provengono da materiali riciclati (vetro dalle bottiglie).</li>
<li>Riusano gli scarti di tessuti dalla produzione dei vestiti, per esempio per realizzare corde per saltare e cuscini per la scuola.</li>
<li> Riutilizzano i tessuti rimanenti dai vestiti che creano (per fare corde per saltare e cuscini per la scuola).</li>
<li><strong>Gli alunni sono coinvolti in progetti educativi</strong> per insegnare loro a ridurre l&#8217;inquinamento dalla plastica e la pulizia della spiaggia. Ogni anno gli studenti partecipano al World Beach Clean Up Day e solitamente ottengono il primo premio dal comune di Watamu, dato che sono tutti così entusiasti. Quest&#8217;anno sono stati i primi a salire bordo del viaggio inaugurale di <a href="http://www.theflipflopi.com">Flipiflopi</a>, un&#8217;imbarcazione realizzata completamente in plastica e infradito riciclate. Bushbells collabora anche a stretto contatto con organizzazioni locali come Watamu Marine Association (che ha un impianto di riciclo della plastica) e Ocean Trust. Lavorano tutti insieme per mantenere questa bellissima parte del mondo e &#8220;Watamu&#8221; significa letteralmente &#8220;acque dolci&#8221;, mi dice Jax.</li>
</ul>
<p>I profitti delle vendite di Bushbells aiutano a continuare a fornire la colazione a 85 studenti al giorno, oltre a offrire 11 borse di studio a bambini che ne hanno necessità per andare a scuola. Inoltre, vengono acquistati nuovi libri di studio e le aule vengono costruite se necessario. Una nuova piccola biblioteca e un&#8217;altra classe sono state completate quest&#8217;anno.</p>
<p>Amano avere persone che fanno <strong>volontariato nella scuola</strong> &#8211; il che a sua volta offre ai volontari un&#8217;esperienza preziosa di questo piccolo progetto comunitario nelle aree più povere.</p>
<p><strong>Gli obiettivi di sviluppo sostenibile delle Nazioni Unite coinvolti in questa iniziativa? 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 12, 14 e 15</strong>. Un gran numero!</p>
<p>Questo progetto è in corso da poco più di 10 anni. Sammy e il suo team di sarti ora sono in 4, più Enoch, addetto alla lavorazione e riparazione della pelle che produce cinture e collari. &#8220;È un&#8217;attività molto piccola e molto diretta, vendiamo una cintura, ne ordiniamo un&#8217;altra&#8221;, afferma Jax. &#8220;Probabilmente potremmo costruire più aule più velocemente se avessimo una squadra di sarti più numerosa per fare più vestiti da vendere, ma piano piano, non c&#8217;è fretta e non stiamo cercando di competere con i capi di abbigliamento di grandi marche. Siamo orgogliosi di sapere &#8216;chi fatto i vestiti&#8217; e da dove vengono esattamente&#8221;. Jax aggiunge anche quanto sia orgogliosa di sua madre, &#8220;Mama Anna&#8221;, di quasi 80 anni, e del meraviglioso lavoro che fa per garantire il buon funzionamento dei progetti. <strong>&#8220;I sarti sono i veri eroi &#8211; così devoti, così leali, lavorano così duramente. Puoi vedere i loro adorabili volti sorridenti (Lilian, Ruth and Rehema e il maestro sarto Sammy) tutti sul nostro sito o pagine di instagram&#8221;.</strong></p>
<p>Abbiamo chiesto a Jax le sfide che devono affrontare. Ammette di avere molti concorrenti che vendono prodotti simili. Ma assicura che andrà avanti, poiché sa che il suo lavoro è buono e i frutti delle sue fatiche sono i sorridenti bambini che ricevono un&#8217;istruzione di prima categoria. &#8220;Questa è la forza trainante quando le cose sembrano diventare difficili!&#8221;. E l&#8217;altra sfida è assicurare il futuro ai sarti: &#8220;Io e mia madre sentiamo che stiamo diventando troppo grandi per proseguire, ma rimango ottimista sul fatto che si presenteranno le giuste opportunità&#8221;. Più sotto il video del progetto e le foto dei loro felici. Grazie Jax (e sua madre) per l&#8217;impegno in questo progetto.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #acc0a5;"><strong>English &#8211; Bushbells: colourful and &#8220;happy&#8221; clothes for a great educational sustainable project</strong></span></h6>
<p>When I first viewed the entry from Bushbells I immediately noticed the commitment this little project makes in trying to address as many of the <a href="https://www.un.org/sustainabledevelopment/blog/2015/12/sustainable-development-goals-kick-off-with-start-of-new-year/">UN Sustainable Development goals</a> as possible.  I met the owner and co-founder of Bushbells, Jax Comyn, at the Be The Change Awards 2019.  Be The Change is an initiative born as a collaboration between the ethical clothing brand <a href="https://www.wheredoesitcomefrom.co.uk">Where Does It Come From?</a> of Jo Salter  and the online community <a href="https://ethicalhour.co.uk">Ethical Hour</a> of Sian Conway (you can read here about the event <a href="https://dress-ecode.com/stories-of-brands-that-decided-to-make-the-difference-be-the-change-awards-1/">Stories of brands that decide to make the difference</a>).  Bushbells was one of the finalist brands of the award. <br data-rich-text-line-break="true" />Talking to Jax, you can see her passion and drive to provide <strong>ongoing education for a small coastal community in Watamu</strong>, Kenya.  She told me that the whole ethos of Bushbells was born out of trying to help a friend Sammy, who&#8217;d been widowed and had young children to support, as well as help another environmentalist  build his school.  Jax and her Bushbells team in England, sell the beautiful kikoy cotton clothes that Sammy and his team make in Kenya, and <strong>profits from these sales provide the funding for the educational projects</strong>.  <br data-rich-text-line-break="true" />The brand&#8217;s signature are the brightly coloured kikoy cottons, that are made into pull-ons which can be worn &#8216;inside, outside, beachside, fireside. They&#8217;re comfortable, relaxed, happy clothes and you know that with your purchase you are directly helping a small team of workers. <br data-rich-text-line-break="true" />With their success, they completed their first school (and namesake) Bushbells in 2014, and a second, sister school, Bluebells,  is more than half way through construction.  <strong>Which sustainable and ethical aspects they embrace?</strong> At the school: </p>
<ul>
<li>They use solar-powered light.</li>
<li>They compost.</li>
<li>They have a well with a solar-powered pump (literally just completed two week&#8217;s ago from kind funding).</li>
<li>They plant trees.</li>
<li>They have a vegetable garden in the school where pupils can see vegetables growing.</li>
<li>They recycle. Even the windows come from recycled materials (glass from bottles).</li>
<li>They reuse left-over fabrics from the clothes they make (to make skipping ropes and cushions for the school).</li>
<li><strong style="font-size: inherit;">Pupils are taken on educational projects</strong><span style="font-size: inherit;"> to teach them about  </span><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size: inherit;">reducing </span><span style="font-size: inherit;">plastic pollution and </span><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size: inherit;">beach clean-ups.  Every year the pupils from the school take part in the &#8216;world wide beach clean up day&#8217; and usually win first prize from Watamu,  as they are all so keen. This year, they were first on-board the maiden voyage of <a href="http://www.theflipflopi.com">Flipiflopi</a>, a dhow made completely out of recycled plastic and recycled flip-flops. </span><span style="font-size: inherit;">Bushbells also collaborates closely  with local organizations such as Watamu Marine Association (which has a plastic recycling plant) and Ocean Trust.   They all work together to maintain this beautiful part of the world, and &#8216;Watamu&#8217; literally means &#8216;sweet waters&#8217;, Jax tells me.</span></li>
</ul>
<p>The profits from Bushbells sales helps them continue to provide a breakfast club for 85 students daily, as well as provide 11 bursaries for children who need them to go to school. In addition new curriculum books are purchased and classrooms built if needed. A new lock up library and another classroom were completed in the new year. They love having people to <strong>volunteer at the school</strong> &#8211; which in turn gives the volunteers valuable experience first hand of this little community project in the poorest of areas. <br /><strong>The UN Sustainable Development goals involved in this initiative? 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 12, 14 and 15.</strong> A stunning number!</p>
<p>This project has been going for just over 10 years. Sammy and his team of tailors now number 4, plus Enoch, the leather worker who makes belts and collars. &#8220;It&#8217;s very small and very direct. We sell a belt. We order another&#8221;, says Jax. &#8220;We could probably build more classrooms faster if we had bigger teams of tailors to make more clothes to sell, but slowly slowly. There is no rush, and we are not trying to compete with big branded clothing. We are proud to know &#8216;who made your clothes&#8217; and to know exactly where they come from&#8221;. Jax also adds how proud she is of her mother &#8216;Mama Anna&#8217; who is nearly 80, and the wonderful job she does to ensure all the smooth running of the projects. <strong>&#8220;The tailors are the real heroes &#8211; so dedicated, so loyal, they work so hard. You can see their lovely smiling faces (Lilian, Ruth and Rehema and Master tailor Sammy) all on our website or instagram pages&#8221;.</strong></p>
<p>We asked Jax about the challenges they face. She admits that she has many competitors who sell similar products. But she will carry on, as she knows the good her work does and the fruits of her labours are the happy smiling children receiving a first class education. &#8220;This is the driving force when things seem to get tough!&#8221;. And the other challenge is to secure the future for the tailors: &#8220;I and my mother feel we are getting too old to carry on! But I remain optimistic that the right opportunities will present themselves&#8221;. <br />Thank you Jax (and thank you to her mother too) for all the efforts you make for this project.</p>

Among its campaigns, there is the one to stop exploitation (including child slavery) in the cotton industry, particularly in Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan.These two countries are among the largest producers and exporters of cotton in the world, which ends up in global supply chains and on the shelves of many shops. To produce this cotton, both repressive governments use large-scale forced labor systems. Every autumn more than a million Uzbek and Turkmen citizens are forced by the government to leave their regular jobs and go to the camps to collect cotton. Farmers are ordered to grow cotton, otherwise they risk financial sanctions or removal from the land they farm. During the harvest, citizens like teachers and doctors are forced to leave their regular jobs to spend weeks in the fields picking cotton, often in dangerous conditions and without basic equipment. People can be left exhausted and suffer from health problems and malnutrition after weeks of hard work. Those who work in the cotton plantations are forced to stay in makeshift dormitories in precarious conditions with insufficient food and drinking water. Under pressure from activists, Uzbekistan has promised reforms of its forced labor system. However, it is far from eliminated.

Cotton is not a sustainable material, due to the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers used and the consumption of water required for its cultivation.

As consumers what can we do?

					<description><![CDATA[Perché parliamo di&#160;cotone? Perché è uno dei tessuti più utilizzati per il nostro abbigliamento (e non solo) ed&#160;è anche tra quelli con maggior impatto ambientale. Considerando le magliette, ogni anno nel mondo ne acquistiamo&#160;2 miliardi! E’ fresco, morbido, piacevole da sentire sulla pelle, pratico, d’estate quasi un must, ma ne acquistiamo così tanto che non mancano le conseguenze sull’ambiente e&#160;sulle persone…. Ne parliamo per capire perché prima di comprare capi in cotone tradizionale sia importante&#160;chiederci se davvero ne abbiamo bisogno o almeno valutare l’opzione del&#160;cotone biologico o altre&#160;fibre&#160;naturali. Perché l’impatto del cotone&#160;sulla natura e sulle persone non è trascurabile?&#160;Il&#160;video The life cycle of a t-shirt (di&#160;Angel Chang) ci spiega passo passo la vita di questo tessuto. Si parte dalla coltivazione, che avviene in più di 80 paesi (India, Cina e Stati Uniti soprattutto) e che richiede un ammontare significativo sia di acqua sia di pesticidi. Sono necessari 2.700 litri di acqua per produrre una t-shirt standard, spesso impiegando questo prezioso bene proprio in paesi dove scarseggia, visto che il cotone predilige climi asciutti. Inoltre, è una delle piantagioni in cui si utilizzano più pesticidi al mondo: 1/3 dei pesticidi chimici e dei fertilizzanti sintetici globalmente utilizzati. La coltivazione riguarda anche l’aspetto sociale:&#160;il salario dei lavoratori, il&#160;coinvolgimento di minori nella raccolta, le condizioni di lavoro (tra cui l’inalazione di sostanze tossiche). Successivamente il cotone&#160;è spedito (con relativo impatto quindi in termini di emissioni) in fabbriche per essere mischiato, cardato, pettinato, tirato,&#160;allungato e infine intrecciato in nastri componendo matasse. Queste&#160;passano alla fase successiva: la tessitura. Sono aggiunti prodotti chimici per renderlo morbido e bianco. Le&#160;matasse sono sbiancate e poi tinte,&#160;purtroppo nella maggior parte dei casi con sostanze tossiche (dannose per la pelle, per i lavoratori che ne vengono a contatto e per l’ambiente arrivando dagli scarichi industriali nell’oceano). A questo punto il tessuto viaggia di nuovo nel mondo, per essere trasformato in magliette. Il Bangladesh è il maggior esportatore di magliette di cotone, 5 milioni di persone&#160;lavorano nella produzione di&#160;magliette – tipicamente vivono in condizioni di povertà e ricevono un salario esiguo, non sufficiente per vivere dignitosamente. Il documentario “UDITA”&#160;(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_tuvBHr6WU)&#160;racconta di 5 anni accanto alle donne coinvolte nella produzione di abbigliamento in Bangladesh. Questa finestra sulla loro vita&#160;mi ha colpito profondamente, da quando l’ho visto non riesco più a non chiedermi da dove venga ciò che vorrei comprare, chi lo ha fatto, se con il mio acquisto sto spendendo troppo&#160;poco&#160;a discapito di un livello di vita dignitoso di qualcun altro…&#160;Il video è stato una delle ragioni dell’adozione della filosofia&#160;“pochi capi ma di qualità e sostenibili” (http://ecoscienti.org/2018/04/13/vita-da-ecoscienti-abbigliamento-sostenibile/&#160;). Una volta prodotte, le magliette viaggiano nuovamente&#160;sul pianeta&#160;per essere vendute. Si calcola un’enorme impronta di CO2, producendo&#160;globalmente il 10% delle emissioni di carbonio (1.000 miliardi di kilowatt orari) ogni anno. Se proprio desideriamo&#160;indossare capi in cotone, consideriamo quello organico, che rappresenta&#160;l’1% della produzione globale (22 milioni e 700 mila tonnellate) oppure l’acquisto di indumenti di seconda mano. Il cotone organico è coltivato senza pesticidi e fertilizzanti sintetici e non proviene da semi geneticamente modificati. Ma soprattutto implica un sistema agricolo sostenibile, perché i piccoli coltivatori di cotone di solito piantano più colture, sia per la vendita sia per il consumo familiare (soia, girasoli, legumi, ecc.), non affidandosi solo ad una tipologia di coltivazione. Contribuiscono così alla biodiversità del terreno.&#160;Anche il consumo di acqua è significativamente&#160;ridotto, perché principalmente deriva dalla pioggia: si stima un consumo di acqua pari al 10%- 20% della quantità richiesta dalla coltura tradizionale. Ecco una tabella riassuntiva del confronto tra cotone normale e biologico: (fonte Textile Exchange) La certificazione e la&#160;tracciabilità ci aiutano a scegliere prodotti con impatto più contenuto.&#160;Il certificato&#160;GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard)&#160;ci dà maggiori garanzie e riguarda&#160;la trasformazione, la produzione, l’imballaggio, l’etichettatura, il commercio e la distribuzione dei tessuti realizzati con almeno il 70% di fibre naturali biologiche. Il certificato Fair Trade invece riguarda gli aspetti sociali/lavorativi della produzione del tessuto, garantendo il rispetto delle persone coinvolte. Curiosa alternativa&#160;la maglietta con durata garantita per&#160;30 anni: prodotta in&#160;cotone italiano per durare a lungo, in caso accada qualcosa al vostro indumento&#160;per tre decadi dall’acquisto sarà riparata o sostituita gratuitamente. La collezione artigianale “30 anni”&#160;di Tom Cridland&#160;include anche camice,&#160;pantaloni, felpe e giacche in cotone, lana e&#160;cachemire. L’antitesi (e l’antidoto) della fast fashion. Ho chiesto informazioni all’azienda&#160;su un’eventuale certificazione&#160;dei tessuti ma non ho avuto al momento risposta.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Perché parliamo di&nbsp;cotone? Perché è uno dei tessuti più utilizzati per il nostro abbigliamento (e non solo) ed&nbsp;è anche tra quelli con maggior impatto ambientale. Considerando le magliette, ogni anno nel mondo ne acquistiamo&nbsp;2 miliardi!</p>
<p>E’ fresco, morbido, piacevole da sentire sulla pelle, pratico, d’estate quasi un must, ma ne acquistiamo così tanto che non mancano le conseguenze sull’ambiente e&nbsp;sulle persone….</p>
<p>Ne parliamo per capire perché prima di comprare capi in cotone tradizionale sia importante&nbsp;chiederci se davvero ne abbiamo bisogno o almeno valutare l’opzione del&nbsp;cotone biologico o altre&nbsp;fibre&nbsp;naturali.</p>
<p><span id="more-230"></span></p>
<p>Perché l’impatto del cotone&nbsp;sulla natura e sulle persone non è trascurabile?&nbsp;Il&nbsp;video <em>The life cycle of a t-shirt</em> (di&nbsp;Angel Chang) ci spiega passo passo la vita di questo tessuto.</p>
<p>Si parte dalla coltivazione, che avviene in più di 80 paesi (India, Cina e Stati Uniti soprattutto) e che richiede un ammontare significativo sia di acqua sia di pesticidi. Sono necessari 2.700 litri di acqua per produrre una t-shirt standard, spesso impiegando questo prezioso bene proprio in paesi dove scarseggia, visto che il cotone predilige climi asciutti. Inoltre, è una delle piantagioni in cui si utilizzano più pesticidi al mondo: 1/3 dei pesticidi chimici e dei fertilizzanti sintetici globalmente utilizzati. La coltivazione riguarda anche l’aspetto sociale:&nbsp;il salario dei lavoratori, il&nbsp;coinvolgimento di minori nella raccolta, le condizioni di lavoro (tra cui l’inalazione di sostanze tossiche).</p>
<p>Successivamente il cotone&nbsp;è spedito (con relativo impatto quindi in termini di emissioni) in fabbriche per essere mischiato, cardato, pettinato, tirato,&nbsp;allungato e infine intrecciato in nastri componendo matasse. Queste&nbsp;passano alla fase successiva: la tessitura. Sono aggiunti prodotti chimici per renderlo morbido e bianco. Le&nbsp;matasse sono sbiancate e poi tinte,&nbsp;purtroppo nella maggior parte dei casi con sostanze tossiche (dannose per la pelle, per i lavoratori che ne vengono a contatto e per l’ambiente arrivando dagli scarichi industriali nell’oceano).</p>
<p>A questo punto il tessuto viaggia di nuovo nel mondo, per essere trasformato in magliette. Il Bangladesh è il maggior esportatore di magliette di cotone, 5 milioni di persone&nbsp;lavorano nella produzione di&nbsp;magliette – tipicamente vivono in condizioni di povertà e ricevono un salario esiguo, non sufficiente per vivere dignitosamente. Il documentario “UDITA”&nbsp;(<a id="LPlnk174913" class="OWAAutoLink" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_tuvBHr6WU">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_tuvBHr6WU</a>)&nbsp;racconta di 5 anni accanto alle donne coinvolte nella produzione di abbigliamento in Bangladesh. Questa finestra sulla loro vita&nbsp;mi ha colpito profondamente, da quando l’ho visto non riesco più a non chiedermi da dove venga ciò che vorrei comprare, chi lo ha fatto, se con il mio acquisto sto spendendo troppo&nbsp;poco&nbsp;a discapito di un livello di vita dignitoso di qualcun altro…&nbsp;Il video è stato una delle ragioni dell’adozione della filosofia&nbsp;“pochi capi ma di qualità e sostenibili” (<a id="LPlnk174210" class="OWAAutoLink" href="http://ecoscienti.org/2018/04/13/vita-da-ecoscienti-abbigliamento-sostenibile/">http://ecoscienti.org/2018/04/13/vita-da-ecoscienti-abbigliamento-sostenibile/</a>&nbsp;).</p>
<p>Una volta prodotte, le magliette viaggiano nuovamente&nbsp;sul pianeta&nbsp;per essere vendute. Si calcola un’enorme impronta di CO2, producendo&nbsp;globalmente il 10% delle emissioni di carbonio (1.000 miliardi di kilowatt orari) ogni anno.</p>
<p>Se proprio desideriamo&nbsp;indossare capi in cotone, consideriamo quello organico, che rappresenta&nbsp;l’1% della produzione globale (22 milioni e 700 mila tonnellate) oppure l’acquisto di indumenti di seconda mano.</p>
<p>Il cotone organico è coltivato senza pesticidi e fertilizzanti sintetici e non proviene da semi geneticamente modificati. Ma soprattutto implica un sistema agricolo sostenibile, perché i piccoli coltivatori di cotone di solito piantano più colture, sia per la vendita sia per il consumo familiare (soia, girasoli, legumi, ecc.), non affidandosi solo ad una tipologia di coltivazione. Contribuiscono così alla biodiversità del terreno.&nbsp;Anche il consumo di acqua è significativamente&nbsp;ridotto, perché principalmente deriva dalla pioggia: si stima un consumo di acqua pari al 10%- 20% della quantità richiesta dalla coltura tradizionale.</p>
<p>Ecco una tabella riassuntiva del confronto tra cotone normale e biologico:</p>

<p>La certificazione e la&nbsp;tracciabilità ci aiutano a scegliere prodotti con impatto più contenuto.&nbsp;Il certificato&nbsp;<strong>GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard)&nbsp;</strong>ci dà maggiori garanzie e riguarda&nbsp;la trasformazione, la produzione, l’imballaggio, l’etichettatura, il commercio e la distribuzione dei tessuti realizzati con almeno il 70% di fibre naturali biologiche.</p>
<p>Il certificato <strong>Fair Trade</strong> invece riguarda gli aspetti sociali/lavorativi della produzione del tessuto, garantendo il rispetto delle persone coinvolte.</p>
<p>Curiosa alternativa&nbsp;la maglietta con durata garantita per&nbsp;30 anni: prodotta in&nbsp;cotone italiano per durare a lungo, in caso accada qualcosa al vostro indumento&nbsp;per tre decadi dall’acquisto sarà riparata o sostituita gratuitamente.<br />
La collezione artigianale <b>“30 anni”</b>&nbsp;di Tom Cridland&nbsp;include anche camice,&nbsp;pantaloni, felpe e giacche in cotone, lana e&nbsp;cachemire. L’antitesi (e l’antidoto) della fast fashion.<br />
Ho chiesto informazioni all’azienda&nbsp;su un’eventuale certificazione&nbsp;dei tessuti ma non ho avuto al momento risposta.<br />
