With its commitment to "doing the right thing", breakthroughs in converting recycled soda bottles into plush fleece fabric, a dedication to only using organic cotton, being powered by 100% renewable energy, and a new children's clothing line carved out of scraps, Patagonia is a pioneer on the journey toward more environmentally and socially sustainable industrial practices.
