Could Cities Grow All Their Textiles? Episode 157.

Should cities grow all their own textiles? Ideally yes, for the same reasons they should produce all of their own food and energy: to shrink our land use so we can restore the lost half of life on Earth. Making textiles locally also subjects that industry to closer scrutiny. That would sharply curtail its rampant pollution, waste and abusive labor practices. But do cities have enough space to grow all the fiber we use? What would have to change to make it possible? Obviously, this is a vast topic (worthy of multiple doctoral dissertations), but I have postponed it long enough. In today’s episode, I’ll run through a few big-picture scenarios to give you a sense of how textile production might fit into the (ahem) fabric of a fully Edenic city. Edenicity is permaculture urbanism.
