what's the best alternative to cotton?


Hemp or linen probably. Cotton recycling is also better than new cotton. But for clothes the heavy emphasis is on "reduce" and "reuse" which is why fast fashion is so insidious.

One major problem that has arisen recently is that a lot of clothes now are cotton blends which cannot easily be recycled.
