You have a new baby and you also feel you are environmentally responsible and wish to keep everything as "green" and pristine as possible. So how can you accomplish both? Make sure you use only organic baby clothes on your child from infancy on. We have learned that previously baby clothing had been made from cotton fibres treated with chemicals to insure they were very soft for babies. But many of those very chemicals have been shown to be harmful to the environment even though safe for small children. Now we know better. What has been deemed safe because it didn't appear to harm the children now is known to cause irritation for some and even potential long term health issues for many. Whenever any form of chemicals for treatment can be avoided, that will help make certain the product is safe, for both the baby and the environment as a whole.

How do we get organic cotton?

Just how do we get "organic cotton" and other popular and environmentally friendly fibres? Well the term "organic" means that everything from the soil to the fertilizers used to grow cotton from seeds that are derived from an organic source. No synthetic fertilizers or chemicals that can harm the soil or pesticides that can cause more harm than good must ever be used in the making of organic products. While cotton is among the most popular fibres grown and manufactured organically, there are other types. However cotton has proven to be the most versatile and resilient material and is extremely popular for use as clothing, diapers, toys, bathrobes, towels, bedding and blankets. Along with use as a fabric, the cottonseed oil derived from growing cotton is also grown organically and is used as a safe and economical animal feed and even for making chips and cookies. Organic cotton is an extremely versatile and valuable commodity and is especially appreciated for use as organic baby clothes.

As a popular commodity organic cotton ranks high in global production

The fact that organic cotton grows by use of materials and methods shown to be of a low impact on our environment, it has become widely popular around the world and is now grown everywhere it is possible. This also means there must be methods by which it can be proven to be strictly grown in an environmentally friendly fashion. Third party organizations that provide certification must verify those who call themselves "organic producers" are following the guidelines correctly and never use synthetic fertilizers or any form of toxic pesticides. Genetically engineered seeds are strictly prohibited in use for organic farming and must meet regulations governing how cotton is to be grown.

Where valuable organic cotton is produced globally

Currently there are twenty two countries around the world growing organic cotton. The United States, Peru, Egypt, China, India, Turkey, Syria, and Tanzania are among the biggest producers and an estimate of $4.3 billion was grown in 2009 which is up by some thirty five percent from the previous year (2008). The popularity of organic cotton continues to grow and with even more uses for the products made with this environmentally safe and useful product there is no end to the bright future for organic cotton. Keep your baby safe and warm in organic baby clothes.

Teaching Your Baby About Living Green

Eco friendly baby products are important not only for the planet and your baby's health, but for teaching your baby about living green. We all know that the planet needs our help to get healthy again, and to thrive for future generations. Moving toward organic products is part of what is going to help make that happen. But in order for larger numbers of people to embrace organics as not only a luxury, but a necessity to helping our planet, we need to start teaching them about this importance when they're still young. Starting your baby out with organic products in every part of his or her life is the perfect foundation for this.

At first, when your baby is still an infant, using eco friendly baby products is just going to be something you do to help keep your baby healthy. You want your child to be exposed to products that are as pure as possible, so that no harmful chemicals will infiltrate your baby and cause health problems that can last a lifetime. You want to be sure your baby's food, clothes, bedding, toys, and more are all organic in nature and produced with nothing toxic. Fortunately, there's a whole industry devoted to creating these products for you, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding them.

As your baby gets older, you can start explaining to him or her the importance of the choices you make in the toys you select, the food you serve, and more. A baby that is raised in a green household will always know and understand the importance of living green. You can even buy educational books that will tell stories about our planet and how we can help protect it. There are also plenty of educational toys that explain the same concepts through play. If your child questions why you choose wooden blocks for toys instead of LEGO, for example, you can use this as a teaching moment, too. Explain the benefits to the earth by using sustainable wood, and a child who has been raised to respect and love the earth will understand the importance of this type of toy and be glad to play with it.

You can find eco friendly baby products all over the place. The internet is a good place to start. While some towns are too small to support a market for organic products on a large scale, you can always find what you need online. If you're lucky enough to live in a city with a wide variety of stores, you can probably shop for what you need in town. Just remember that when you're buying these products for your baby, you're also setting a foundation for a lifetime of learning and respect for the planet we all call home.
