Annotations - organic fibre

On one hand, cashmere is a natural fibre, so unlike polyester, nylon and other synthetics, there are no issues regarding its ability to decompose, but, as with all animal-derived products, the goats used in the production of cashmere produce a carbon footprint. Plus, when you look at the chain of production, it's not uncommon to see the destruction of natural habitats as a result of the ever-growing demand the cashmere industry is placing on our planet

(habitat destruction) -- actually this appears to refer to grasslands as "natural habitat" for goats, rather than wildlife (see the reference to "habitats" below)
