International Fur Association CEO Mark Auton: one of the favorite arguments of anti fur people is that "artificial fur is more environmentally friendly than natural fur", which is just like what they see as "fake fur".

At University of California in Santa Barbara, USA, researchers found that the average release of 1.7 grams of microfiber in each wash was devastating for rivers, oceans and marine life, while the old man-made fiber clothing was twice as fast as the new one.

  

Plastic fiber

Harm: what is "microfiber" in man-made fiber clothing? They are tiny plastic fibers that can poison food chains.

Its tiny size allows fish and other wild creatures to devour and accumulate in larger and larger animals in the food chain, so that toxins can be concentrated.

This new research is only part of the story. PETA always likes to quote from CE Delft, a Holland consulting firm, in 2011.

Artificial fur

Be big. "

There is a clear loophole, not only because it is a conclusion from three European anti fur agencies, but even the study says, "1 kilograms of water mink sheets need 563 kilograms of feed (meat and fish)".

Impact on the environment: finally, artificial fur is made up of polyacrylate, which needs to extract and decompose petroleum, which not only consume a lot of energy, but also produce a lot of extremely bad chemicals.

This is not to say that fur clothing has no environmental problems in its production process, especially in the process of primary sodium nitrate dyeing.

We acknowledge this publicly and are trying to reduce its impact on production.

As I have often said, if you don't want to wear fur, I always respect your choice.

If you want to have a warm and beautiful coat, please avoid the artificial fur.

The anti fur people want you to believe that "fake is better than real fur", but that's not the case.

On the other hand, we can confirm that the data greatly exaggerate the facts.

At the same time, CE Delft totally ignored: if mink does not eat these fish and meat, they will also be used for their way, otherwise they will be buried or burned as garbage.

This is the real environmental benefits.

And they selectively ignore the fact that mink feces can be used for fertilizers and biofuels.

More importantly, real fur can be used for a long, long time.

  

Natural fur

Recyclable: the last point may be the core of the problem. Natural fur clothing can be used for 30 years without being out dated.

Moreover, real fur clothing is comfortable and warm, and fake fur is "disposable fashion", hanging in the wardrobe for 5 years at most, if they are lucky enough.

When artificial fur and plastic garbage bags are used together in the garbage dump, the natural fur clothing is still in your wardrobe (it may be renovated several times, but the artificial fur is not treated like this), or is quietly degraded by the organism.
