The materials used in anything is incredibly important.  While I myself am in the process of paying more attention to what the things I buy are made of, I encourage everyone to begin paying attention as well.  I'm providing random facts and information about each of the materials I use so you can make an informed decision when you purchase things.  In addition, interesting facts to make a decision on quality and the ethics of different materials I find will be posted here.  At the bottom I will add a Works Cited with links to each of the pages I used for research.
