We can replace leather with mushrooms, grapes,
cacti, and more.
Cruelty-Free Plant Leather Is the Future. Tell Major
Fashion Brands to Ditch Animal Suffering!

We all know that fur fashion is cruelty — but the
leather trade is bad for animals, too. To produce our bags, coats, shoes,
and more, living creatures are imprisoned, forced into a lifetime of
servitude and suffering, and then slaughtered for our clothing. On top of
that, it also hurts the environment. Leather production — just like
animal-based agriculture — requires huge amounts of land, water, and other
resources in order to raise the animals who are then butchered for their
skin and flesh. It contributes significantly to global greenhouse gas
emissions, and therefore climate change, as well as deforestation. That's
why it's so exciting to learn that more and more companies are turning to
plant-based leather alternatives. So why are some major fashion houses
refusing to move away from animal leather and toward sustainable
alternatives?
Plant-based leather can now be made from a variety
of all-natural resources such as grapes, cactus, kombucha, mushrooms,
pineapples, apples, bananas, and more. These fruit and fungi leathers are
full of benefits for animals and the planet. The fur-free movement has shown
us that change is possible. With enough pressure, even the most prominent
brands in the world will finally choose innovative alternatives over
suffering-based options. In fact, over the past several years, Prada,
Versace, Armani, Michael Kors, Zara, H&M, and hundreds of other brands and
retailers have committed to phasing out fur in their products. Now it's time
for them to eliminate animal-based leather, too. Sign the petition to tell
these major fashion houses to replace animal leather with plant-based
alternatives now!
Thank you,
