Cotton can be considered both a direct and indirect service. As a direct service, cotton is a natural plant fiber that is used to make a wide range of products, including clothing, bedding, and textiles. As an indirect service, cotton production can have environmental and social impacts, such as water usage, pesticide use, and labor practices. Additionally, ethical and aesthetic considerations should also be taken into account when discussing cotton production, as consumers may choose to support sustainable and ethically produced cotton products.
