I think there have been inroads to use it in place of cotton (or equivalent denier) Mind you NOTHING can replace Cotton and American Cotton is of the best quality ( GeeWell sure, maybe you can make a hemp-denim Jacket, but I'm still sceptical to it being used for other forms of clothing - underwear, trousers, shirts - like I said it's a more coarse fabric and while it's more durable than cotton I don't think there's this great big conspiracy against it that you think there is!I wonder why?) silk can also be made here in Oz and our wool is second to none (even the Kiwis are hard pressed to get the denier right)
Like I said before, I PREFER Wool, Silk, Hemp, Flax and Leather for it's biodegradability and sustainability over the petrol-chemical synthetics.
Nah, I think we have mastered that one...I did find a store here in bumfuck WA that had some very nice clothing ...hang on....

How does producing fertiliser mean that the animals deserve to be slaughtered? This link has not been explained in any detail.
The same question can be asked "why do you think you deserve to eat plant material?"
