Is it better for the environment if you buy a brand-new cotton T-shirt or a recycled one? Well, it depends. Recycling has apparent benefits, but the process shortens cotton fibres and so usually has to be mixed with some oil-based material to keep it from falling apart. Such trade-offs make it tricky to figure out the real sustainability rating of clothes — but brands in Europe will soon have no choice.
