Recycled Organic Cotton

I am looking for either recycled polyester, organic cotton, or bamboo fabric does anyone know any stores in NYC area or place online where I can purchase this?

Not sure in NYC, but I found a similar question on the Conscious Choice website that lists a number of places to buy organic fabric online - http://consciouschoice.com/2005/cc1807/l ivinggreen1807.html

Hope this helps!

I have this really nice Radiohead shirt. It is XL and is made of 50% Organic cotton and 50% Recycled Polyester. It is also very light weight. My mom washed it the other day and put it with my other shits. When I wore it today I noticed it kinda......shrunk. So what I want to know is how can I prevent this in the future and how should I wash this shirt next time it gets dirty?

it could be that your mom dried it in the dryer and the dryer shrunk the shirt, so next time if you decide to machine wash it (in cold water), you should hang it up on a hanger in your room afterwards and just let it air dry...or you could just hand wash the shirt next time, and also hang it up to dry, just in case the material is too delicate to wash in the machine!!

can anyone else relate to me on this...

i just saw the commercial about the new sony ORGANIC high def tv. honestly, are you kidding me? a tv is in NO WAY, SHAPE or FORM organic. It never will be, it is the complete and udder opposite. I am all down for being organic and being green, I do as much as I can plus some. However, it is becoming almost like a trend, and its obnoxious. Like the t-shirts that are all about recycling and being green, but from target? yeah i'm sure that those are made by hand with organic cotton or whatever. This is ridiculous. People should be green if they want to be, i think its good that it is being stressed but it has now become a trend and the TV just TOPPED it off for me...

please relate with me.
i hope organic hippie that you are agreeing with me, because i am the furthest thing from a naive tv watching fool...

trust me

Honestly dont be such a fool! Poorly tested chemicals are put into your clothes shampoo carpet cleaner and toothpaste. If you think the chemicals they put into your tv are completely safe then you are a naive little man!

If people weren't worried about the potentially harmful chemicals companies are putting into their goods THEN THEY WOULDN'T MAKE STUFF LIKE THAT.

On top of that the chemicals that these plants use end up in our water and pollute our skys. Don't believe me?! I got this from a goverment website.

I'll say this again, dont be such a tv-brainwashed naive fool!

Edit-If it is USDA organic then it is organic. Period. There are alternatives to chemicals for everything. If a television is organic then they are using organic circuitry and natural materials rather then the poorly tested chemicals companies try to rush into our products and is probably also reflected in the price. I do not think that this is over the top at all, infact I thank god that we are beginning to revert back to our much safer natural ways. Being organic is not a trend it should be (the only) way of life. Like I said these factories dump chemical waste into our waters. If you really want to do as much as you can then try to influence these companies into safer practices by avoiding the products that are poisoning our people and destroying our world! I will have to say no I cannot relate to you on this.
