Jeans and Gas Emissions, or: Why French Moonbats Won't Wash Their Clothes

Apparently at a loss for new ways to waste taxpayers' money, France's environment agency commissioned a report that studied the most environmentally sensitive way to care for your jeans.

Carried out by the research firm Bio Intelligence Service, the study found that jeans should be from a country that's not too far away and has strict antipollution laws. Machine washing, tumble drying, and ironing (!) cause 47% of the ecological damage associated with jeans. Dry cleaning jeans is "an environmental disaster."

The issue of toxic residue left by the flatulence of jeans-wearers who consume excessive quantities of smelly cheeses evidently was not addressed.
