What are the three most flammable fabrics?
Natural fibers such as cotton, linen, and silk burn more readily than other materials (silk being the most flammable). Synthetic materials like nylon, acrylic, and polyester do not ignite as readily as natural fibers but when they do ignite they melt causing severe burns. Natural and synthetic blends could be the most dangerous with the combination of high rate of burning and melting making it more hazardous than either fabric alone.

Definition of wash fastness?
Wash fastness? Perhaps you mean color fastness? If that is the case, color fastness is the ability of fabrics to retain the dyes used to color them. Some fabrics hold dye within their fibers extremely well - like denim - while others do not (mostly synthetic or artificial non-natural fabrics) and tend to "bleed" when they are washed. The denim would therefore be more "color fast" than the other fabric.

How is manufacturing synthetic fibers is conserving forests?
The synthetic fibers have their origin in the oil (petroleum) and their processes pollute the enviroment. In the other hand, the natural fibers increase the costs of the food and decrease the wildforest parks. One solution is to recycle the cotton, the plastics and reduce the production of the oil products including the fabrics. There is a new fabric from Dupont made of corn, also the ancient fabrics like Henequen, papire, linen, organic cotton and rayon (celluloise) are more requested by the Fashion Industry for clothing, home decoration and rugs for cars. Another benefit is to have a healthy body, because the natural fabrics permits a natural transpiration.
