keepuporfallbehind asked: I still don't see why do you think it's ok to use discards from the industry. please, explain. Does it make you think you remain in a 'neutral' position about this whole situation in the industry that kills animals for their fur, just because you didn't kill them yourself? I don't see any logic in this. You BUY from them, you support them.
Did I ever say I was neutral? Nope. I am well aware of my part in the process. It’s part of why I have always donated money from my art to animal-based nonprofits.
The fact is, we live in a seriously fucked-up society. Our computers are made by slave labor exposed to lethal toxins made from unsustainably mined metals. Our homes are heated largely by fossil fuels, or by hydroelectric dams that kill fish and other aquatic animals, as well as flood indigenous lands. Our food, no matter how organic, has to be transported by fossil fuels as well.
So we do the best we can with what we have. I work to use discarded remains so that they become something, at least, instead of leaching tanning chemicals into the ground through decomposition in a landfill, or into the air through incineration.
