It’s such a popular choice to have hanging in our wardrobe that around two billion are made each year. And that means they have quite an effect on the environment.
In this TED video Angel Chang takes a tour through the life cycle of a tee, from the cotton fields of Asia to the washing machine in your home. It’s quite the eye-opener.
