This very similar to the "if you wash recycling in water heated via coal burn generated electricity then it creates CO2" argument.
Okay, let's stop burning coal then, because we use electricity for a lot more things than just recycling.
Similarly, if cotton is that bad for the environment, maybe we need to fix that generally rather than just switch to disposable plastic bags for this one minor use case?
