What is Organic Cotton
Organic cotton is grown using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment. Organic production systems replenish and maintain soil fertility, reduce the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and fertilizers, and build biologically diverse agriculture. Third-party certification organizations verify that organic producers use only methods and materials allowed in organic production. Organic cotton is grown without the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. In addition, federal regulations prohibit the use of genetically engineered seed for organic farming. All cotton sold as organic in the United States must meet strict federal regulations covering how the cotton is grown.
What is Bamboo
Bamboo is a type of grass that grows like
a weed. It's the fastest growing plant in the world and can grow up to three feet in one day. Bamboo doesn't need pesticides or insecticides, and it grows well on rain water. The pulp from bamboo is ground up,
and the fibers are spun into yarn.
The resulting fabric is softer than cotton,
with superior performance and contains
absorbant fibers that keep you cool.

The Donkey:
In 1822 the world's first known conviction for animal cruelty under Martin's Act was passed. It was introduced by Colonel Richard Martin himself who brought the first prosecution under the Act, when he had Bill Burns, a costermonger—a street seller of fruit—arrested for beating a donkey. Seeing in court that the magistrates seemed bored and didn't much care about the donkey, he sent for it, parading its injuries before a reportedly astonished court. Burns was fined, becoming the first person in the world known to have been convicted of animal cruelty. Newspapers and music halls were full of jokes about the "Trial of Bill Burns," as it became known, and how Martin had relied on the testimony of a donkey, giving Martin's Act some welcome publicity. The trial became the subject of a painting displaying the Donkey in the courtroom, which hangs in the headquarters of the RSPCA in London.
