Choosing natural fabrics over synthetics isn’t just a fashion choice- it’s a health choice. Fabrics like cotton, h**p, linen, jute, wool, and silk breathe better, release fewer chemicals, and break down back into the soil at the end of their life!

These are often more durable and will outlive your polyester shirt by many years! Let’s prioritize quality over quantity. We don’t expect you to overhaul your entire closet, but every synthetic garment you SKIP keeps microplastics out of your lungs, bloodstream, and the ocean.
Protect your body, protect the planet 🤍🌎

What we wear closest to our bodies matters most.
Synthetic fabrics = plastic → they shed microplastics & may release chemicals when warmed by body heat and sweat.
Choosing natural fibers for underwear + base layers is one of the easiest ways to protect your skin and the planet.

Start with what you wear every day.

Team BGG came ready! 💚 So proud of our student clubs who showed up FULL force to do our part before the Supergirl Pro Festival — because every bit of trash picked up makes a big wave of impact.
And thank you to our event partners, Athletic Brewing & Surfrider 💚💙🌎

In less than two hours, we had over 70 volunteers, 70 pounds of trash collected and over 4000 cigarette butts picked up!!

This November, our monthly theme is synthetic fabrics and fast fashion.
Over 70% of our clothing made today is made from synthetic fibers like polyester, nylon, acrylic, spandex, etc. These fabrics pollute not only the planet, but our bodies as well.

Often, these fabrics are treated with chemicals like BPA & phthalates (plasticizers), PFAS (for stain resistance), and formaldehyde (wrinkle prevention), and azo dyes (for bright, long-lasting color).

Next week, we will tell you which fabrics to shop and which certifications to look for!

NOVEMBER’S THEME: Synthetic fabrics & fast fashion.

Most of us underestimate how our clothes affect the planet and our health. With our skin being our largest organ, it’s important to know what’s SITTING AGAINST YOUR SKIN! Synthetic textiles like ACRYLIC, LYCRA, SPANDEX, POLYESTER, etc can shed microfibers & finishes (like dyes, PFAS, antimicrobials) into our bodies & environment! Heat, sweat, and friction increase the shedding. Areas of our bodies with thinner, more sensitive skin (groin, breasts, underarms, forehead, midsection) may be more affected.

Follow us this month to learn what to avoid, what to choose, and how to dress for a healthier you and a healthier planet.

You are what you eat and this month we delve into how environmental toxins impact our bodies and the planet through food and agriculture.

We’d love to hear from you… Did you learn something new?
