Leather production is very bad for the environment, and the chemicals used are dangerous for the workers who are exposed to them. http://www.peta.org/b/thepetafiles/archi...fault.aspx
Wrong Fornicator. I tried vegan/vegetarianism and was admitted (to hospital very ill) as an anorexic. Whilst I DO strive to have more vegetables in my diet than meat I NEED meat as I am unable to utilise the nutrition from vegetation.
You are just being childish as your precious ideology is being challenged. All in all ...It doesn't work for everyone and you must accept this. Petroleum products are far more dangerous than utilising leather, cotton, silk; which are all biodegradable..your petro-synthetics are not and will pollute your precious "farm-land" and also your "veggies" this is already happening and hence vegan/ vegetarianism isn't as healthy as you would like to think it is
