What is the environmental impact of fleece production? 

The production of fleece can have negative environmental impacts, particularly when it comes to wool fleece. Sheep require large amounts of land and water to graze, which can lead to soil erosion and water pollution. The chemicals used to wash and process the wool can also pollute the water and harm aquatic ecosystems. In addition, the energy and resources used to produce synthetic fleece can contribute to climate change and pollution. However, there are some efforts to make fleece production more sustainable, such as using eco-friendly dyes, recycling the water used in the process, and using recycled materials for synthetic fleece.
