The average American consumer knows very little (or nothing) about leather analogues. Most people associate them with the poor-quality vinyl sold at certain chain stores (naming no names, of course, but you know who I’m talking about) and assume that leather “must” be better for the environment, but they are not exactly correct on either count.
If you know me offline, you may remember my article in Herbivore magazinelast year. Another article, which appeared in The Guardian (UK) on August 27, 2008, may silence uneducated critics more effectively as it is a very well-respected news source rather than a lifestyle magazine (albeit a very good magazine that I for one am sad to see shut down). While certainly not exhaustive,the article does correct the most common assumptions.
P.S. Tune in to BONES tomorrow night; the episode will provide a glimpse into the ugly world of dog fighting. Do I smell a future Genesis Award?
P.P.S. Tomorrow is also my birthday, so wish me a good one
