DYES—For the environmentally
conscious, the issue with conventional apparel-dyeing practices has to do with resulting water contamination. The runoff of the often petroleum-based dyes can find its way into the water supply. A fiber-reactive dyeing process (the color chemically bonds to cloth fibers) uses less water, which gives it a “low-impact” designation,
however, these dyes also can be petroleum-based.
