Do SOMETHING...

"...crisp white cotton, though thought of as a natural and environmental fabric, is actually more damaging to the environment than most synthetic textiles!
Cotton is one of the most environmentally damaging crops grown in the world.
Since it is not a food crop, cotton is routinely sprayed with an even heavier cocktail of pesticide poisons than agricultural food crops. In developing countries, more than 50% of all pesticides used in agriculture are sprayed onto cotton fields.
The result is wide scale water pollution, chronic illness in farm workers, and devastating effects on wildlife. In industrial countries like the USA, cancer rates in cotton producing states are significantly higher than neighboring states. Add to this the effects of bleaching the final fabric, and possibly spraying it with a fire-retardant, and your “natural look” garments seem distinctly unnatural."

Scary? Yes.
But what's even scarier is what we don't know and the information we do not have access to.
But fucking seriously people, do the Earth a favor and use porcelain or glass dishes instead of paper or, even worse, styrofoam (this is made from oil). Though we tell ourselves day after day that one person can't make a difference, that "one can on the side of the road won't matter", just think;
What would the world look like if just one person in every MEDC (more economically developed country) residing family took the bus to work, what would happen if that person recycled or chose to fuel their car with ethanol or vegetable oil?

A whole hell of a lot would happen, that's what. And maybe our generation could grow old with a sufficient water supply and a green earth with healthy, non-polluted air.
