Eco-Friendly T-Shirt
Brazilian T-Shirt designers Budha Khe Rin have come out with a line of green T-shirts. Some are made from bamboo fiber, which is a highly renewable resource (crops can regenerate completely within 60 days of harvest) that puts minimal strain on surrounding environments. Others are made from recycled polyethylene terephthalate (the kind of plastic used in bottles), a substance that can be turned into soft fibre. [see also Mooka Kinney]

Hey Gerry! My name is Claudio and I am one of the owners and designers of Budha Khe Rhi Brasil (Budha Khe Rhi means Laughing Buddha). I’d like to thank you for your post about us. Also, it would be nice to know how you found out about us. Just to let you know that there is a new collection coming out soon and it will be awesome. Besides using bamboo fiber and recycled polyethylene terephthalate, our shirts will be made of tencel and 100% organic cotton! Also, the themes and graphics will be very nice too.
Thank you for your attention,
Claudio
ps.: hopefully soon, the website will be available in English too.
