"It also means an exponential increase in the # of wireless networks, which are energy-guzzlers (est. to be 10x less efficient than wired networks). In 2015 alone, the energy used to power wireless networks generated approx. 30 megatonnes of carbon, the same as 4.9 million cars."
Plastic based #synthetic fabrics use 342 million barrels/ 5437 crore litres of #oil annually.
Some commonly used synthetic fabrics are #polyester, #nylon, #acrylic etc.
These #fabrics are made using fossil fuels and are #nonbiodegradable, hence they’re bad for our #environment.

Let’s stay clear off them while future #shopping. But we don’t have to get rid of the ones we already own. We must take good care of our clothes, use what we already have till it wears out.

Disposing our synthetic clothes in the bin means sending them off to the landfills & that just means a mountain of clothes for hundreds of years to come.
We believe #upcycling is the most #sustainablefashion.

It's true, #rocket #leaves are hyperaccumulators of #nitrates ; this isn't anything new. It's been known for a long time. Other crops with high nitrate content include #spinach and #watercress
