Each of us ought to contribute everything we can to protecting and preserving our delicate planet for this generation and many more to come.

| • Cotton uses approximately 25% of the world's insecticides and more than 10% of the pesticides (including herbicides, insecticides, and defoliants).
• The Environmental Protection Agency considers seven of the top 15 pesticides used on cotton in the United States as "possible", "likely", "probable", or "known" human carcinogens (acephate, dichloropropene, diuron, fluometuron, pendimethalin, tribufos, and trifluralin).
• According to USDA in the United Sates in the year 2000 over 2.03 billion pounds of synthetic fertilizers were applied to conventional cotton fields (142 pounds/acre), making cotton the fourth most heavily fertilized crop behind corn, winter wheat, and soybeans.
• These harmful chemicals pollute the air, deplete the soil and contaminate our fresh water resources (ground water, rivers, lakes, etc)
