Every winter, fur will become an unavoidable topic.

There are four rumors of sudden cold and thousands of years of extreme cold. Designers have long started complaining about the rise of fabric this year and the doubling of raw materials. winter , Leather and fur It is unavoidable again. Topic of conversation 。

I am an out and out fur element. I can see clearly that there is no "reverse" word. In winter, it is almost the "pseudo man" wrapped in fur from head to toe. Friends often let me reflect on the Internet and find videos of animals being skinned alive. No need to see, I would imagine that war like a terrible scene, but if every piece of fur costs so much, the labor cost of the fur processing plant may be higher than that of the fur itself. It may even be a human life for a carnivorous animal fur, which is against the normal logic. In fact, most animals only contribute their bodies after death. Their fur is used for fashion or accessories, and the body enters the food processing plant or other processing.

It's the best way to die. In terms of death, animals are much larger than human beings. At least for now, the body loses its meaning after most human deaths, but the animal's body can "transform" adult food or fashion. When you are born, you may not be great, but you must be glorious when you die.

Another misconception about fur is that it is not environmentally friendly. The chemical constituents of natural fur are water (30%~50%), protein (55%~75%), fat (2%~20%), inorganic salt and carbohydrate <2%. That is to say, a fur coat is buried underground, and it can be completely degraded in a month. As for those substitutes, the raw materials of artificial fur are mainly synthetic chemicals such as synthetic leather, acrylic fiber and spandex, all of which are produced from petroleum. In the process of production, we need to consume a lot of non renewable resources such as oil and coal, and the energy crisis is a serious problem that we have to face up to. Animal fur is a renewable resource, and 85% of the world's fur materials are raised. These animals provide valuable resources for human sustainable use. The production of artificial fur will also produce a large amount of waste gas, waste water and waste residue, and the artificial fur is difficult to degrade, and it will cause serious environmental pollution.

Whether you call it fun fur or faux fur, you can not escape the essence of chemical synthesis.

Wearing fur that comfortably covers them also makes their lives more meaningful.

Of course, this does not mean that we can buy fur at will. Fur skins enter the international trading system. Nowadays, they are usually sold through auction houses. The owners of fur animals are transported to their auctioneers directly or through intermediate buyers. These auction houses are generally close to the main fur producing areas and production areas. The world's most famous fur auction houses are concentrated in Copenhagen, Finland, Helsinki, New York and Seattle, Toronto, North Bay and Vancouver, St Petersburg in Russia, Frankfurt and Lai in Germany, and Hongkong in China. These qualified farmers ensured that animals were kept in a very humane way before they died, and their pain was minimal when they died.

Therefore, if you love the luxuriant appearance of fur and need their warm protection, you can buy fur with certificates of origin and qualification certificates. Wearing fur that comfortably covers them also makes their lives more meaningful.
