Clothing and shoes are damaging the planet too!

It seems that in recent years the environment has found its way into the consciousness of most people the weight of gloomy predictions about the consequences the rapid rise in global temperature.

Gas generators for car lovers are in the firing line for longer, but now there is a awareness that everything we buy has a greater or lesser effect on the welfare of the environment, our fellow humans and animals.

The clothing and footwear has long escaped any negative control, but recently it has become clear that its impact on the environment is as harmful like everyone else. Many chemicals traditionally used for the treatment and dyeing of cancerous tissue and serious pollution if allowed to escape rivers and streams. This applies to chemicals used for tanning leather and shoe upper with rubber base oil used in plants.

Consumerism and the eastward movement

This problem has been exacerbated by the gradual shift of production from the relatively controlled (but expensive) work environments in the West, sweatshop cheap labor "of certain Asian countries. Here, human resources and animals can be exploited beyond the scope of coverage of health and humanitarian compassion and safety of many of take for granted.

The explosion "consumption" of recent decades has contributed to these changes as people, just because a reasonable, want to enjoy the benefits of more products at more competitive prices possible. For example, if you are a woman tennis player, and you see your favorite tennis player, Ana Ivanovic was title = "Women"> adidas tennis shoes television Barricade V of women, and his friend in the tennis club buys a pair, has a natural inclination to want to buy a pair for yourself (in the best possible price) to maintain the place.

Multinational corporations restoration enormous knowledge that this request to stay in business, they must compete in all areas, not least price. Should be aware of their data as a rival for the price of sneakers.

The Big Boys "meet the increased public awareness

But with the sudden jump in awareness of environmental issues, "normal commercial considerations" for these companies have changed subtly, as evidenced by recent statements by the manufacturers of almost simultaneous "adidas sportswear big two ', and Nike, who stop source for leather and other materials from any country where the collateral damage has been done in tropical forests. There is no point in the design, production and marketing of shoes a great great price, only to release many of these "positive", is associated with people have perceived as a serious injury for the planet and, ultimately, even their health and wellbeing.

To better align themselves with public opinion, both Adidas and now produce Nike shoes with eco-friendly considerations. The pressures were probably slightly higher due to a German company founded Adidas, and Germany has one of the most powerful worldwide green movement. In fact, German Blue Angel, formed in 1978 and composed of a group of 13 individuals representing various views through the media, industry, trade unions and the Environment was the first organization in the world who have tried to label the products and services according to their eco-friendly (or other) content.

"Reuse a shoe recycling, reforming and replacement

But Nike has been the first to emphasize to its program "Reuse a shoe in 1993. Collect worn and sneakers to disassemble and recycle and reform of a suitable material for the construction of race tracks, areas and playgrounds.

They also make "of Garbage shoe "Talk workshop consists of clippings, leather and synthetic compounds and leather shoe soles made of rubber recycling Reform old athletic shoes.

The Stan Smith Grun Shoes (German for green) is one of the contributions the growing demand for shoes adidas environment. This is a much greener version of a mass produced footwear and crowned with success.

What green can be?

Unfortunately, for a manufacturer that claims to be "fully" Eco Friendly in footwear production, nature the process is very complex and completely "green shoe" is unrealistic for most, as "natural" alternatives that would profitable. Many shoes are produced volume with a combination of traditional materials with more economically viable green, which is a step in the right direction. (Excuse the pun).

A natural product "with" concern for the production of footwear footwear environment is vegetarian or vegan, leather treatments are replaced by toxic plants under hazardous based synthetic leather. In fact, one could argue that as "animal agriculture" is the largest contributor to global warming, these shoes are the only alternative to these serious about preventing it.

While cattle requires a disproportionate amount of resources for meat / skin that produce compared to alternative plant, and methane that can easily produce 23 times more efficient to store the sun's rays than carbon dioxide.

Food Panda, Lady Bugs and rice husks to provide some answers!

There are a number of smaller shoe companies, which by their very nature, are able to create products of any party environmental impact. They use materials such as tapped rubber trees (no chemicals), bamboo, hemp and organic cotton.

Bamboo and hemp are hardy plants to grow quickly, require no care or rich soils. Its natural fibers can be woven to produce materials that are hard, resistant to water but breathable, lightweight and easy to clean. Organic cotton is grown without the use of pesticides can pollute rivers in the world. Cotton Farmers Professional use natural methods to combat pests such as the introduction of beetles to their crops!

Boston-based footwear company environmentally conscious, "New Balance" add even rice husks to their plants to reduce the need for rubber, still conscious, "added Keen" natural cork. New Balance Score also more points for the Environment "to maintain the production of shoes entirely within the U.S. benefits despite the expected cost of production abroad.

Some of gravity Eco-Business

Some manufacturers of Center his business shoes about environmental awareness. Some worthy of mention are 'Patagonia' Chaco giving 1% of their income to help preserve and restore the environment. "buying green certificates to cover wind any use of electricity each year, "Tom" gives a pair of shoes to a needy child for every pair purchased!

All these companies basic considerations seem to have that land must be protected, people produce their products must be evaluated and supported, and the final product should be built to last, for offset the "use it up, throw away" culture that has prevailed recently.

It is extremely important that the trend towards land use amicably not only a fad, and that some of the shortcomings of the factory clothing and footwear of the function can be overcome, as the difficulty of the infusion of color high in the tissues of plants without resorting to nasty chemicals.

Even now, ecological friendly alternative footwear limited mainly sports shoes and sneakers in general use, while running specialized basketball or tennis shoes = "Title"> tennis shoes are always the first.

The mechanism of change, if this happens, decisions will result in knowledge individual, which, when taken in mass, changing buying habits and reward companies brave and smart enough to give us the option you want and need, to minimize the damage we do daily to our fragile planet.
