There are a lot of times I feel like just…flipping the vegan script.
It’s not ‘polyester’ it’s plastic
It’s not ‘vegan leather’ it’s plastic
Its not ‘faux fur’ it’s plastic
Plastic is a pollutant and causes far more damage to the environment both now and in the future than leather or wool.
Please stop telling me that the Plastic Lyfe is the only life, it is not. My leather shoes will last a decade where pleather is lucky to last 12 months. Leather (and wool) decompose and are renewable. Plastic is neither of those.
THANK YOUUUUUUU~
A single wash cycle of plastic-based fiber (polyester, poly fleece, faux fur) may release 700,000 pieces of microplastic into our waters. Nasty stuff.
aw dangit
Wool is the most environmentally friendly fabric despite being an animal product.
Using wool isnt even harming sheep
Wool in different weights is also one of the best fabrics for different climates and if woven tightly water resistant. Which in turn means no harmful waterproofers needed on the cloth. Unless it’s something like bees wax. But felted is basically one of the best fabrics for cold weather. It self regulates temperature. Plastic? You bake in plastic. Even the lightweight stuff. I’ve worn full Elizabethan clothing in Florida and the worst bit was the poly brocade doublet. The wool dress and linen shift kept me cool.
A good farmer and this is most farmers do NOT harm their sheep shearing them and it benefits the sheep. So what would you have? An irreparably damaged planet full of plastic? Or happy sheep and decent cloth that won’t pollute once finished with?
Like everything sometimes humans take shit too far like can we even talk about some vegans not eating honey like the bees are dying and they think eating honey is a bad thing! It’s NOT! some animal products actually are better for then the environment than their substitute SOY is actually an environmental destroyer!
Like I actually have nothing against vegans but some of them are so arrgoant while doing things they are doing things that are even worse for the planet!
here he is! ive never drawn him before but i did my best. also, because i know it isn’t obvious from how wonky i drew it, he’s looking at murdoc’s cross
ok but does anyone else absolutely love the aesthetic of gorillaz art from circa 2002-2004, that weird period between albums, especially the stuff made for the scrapped movie Celebrity Harvest? it’s this perfect midpoint of the phase 1 and phase 2 styles. I include the Rockit video in with this too.
