Europe doesn't produce that much cotton or wool, so there isn't that much we can do at scale. Biggest one in Europe is Turkey and they are not EU.

Many of the products are made from lyocell, so wood derived.

Europe should cultivate more hemp (again).

Yes! Hemp for clothing! I want this to happen so badly!

But as soon as you bring that up people always go like "oh you only want it for weed" not knowing that hemp is different than the one that makes you high!
