California is set to become the first state in the U.S. to ban the sale of animal fur products. The state-wide law, which will go into effect in 2023, follows city bans in both LA and San Francisco. (hereandnow)

Used fur coats are displayed in San Francisco, California, before the city voted to ban the sale of fur. The monarch will stop buying clothes made from animal fur, and instead, her new wardrobe will be stocked withThe Queen’s move to ditch animal fur mimics the average British consumer’s wishes, says Kitty Block, president and chief executive officer of the Humane Society of the United States, adding the country actually banned fur farming in 2000.

Although there will still be 49 other states free to buy and sell fur, California’s ban sets an example, she says.She says getting the law passed wasn’t an “incredibly challenging lift” because of how many Californians showed support for the issue — pointing to a moment in time when consumers are “much more aware now of what they eat, what they wear, and they don't want to wear fur.”

HybridPuppet hereandnow I'm not against this at all, but lets not see a slippery slope here please

hereandnow We don't NEED Animal Pelts. I refuse to use others hair. People don't wear other human skin, this is good information.

hereandnow Shoes?

hereandnow Law starts in 2023! Y r we seeing this sosoon? 2 give every1 enough time 2 buy!

hereandnow Hope so, California has hypocritical Holywood stars that need to say no to fur first!

hereandnow Is leather next on the hit list? It’s skin without the hair, so it is essentially the same thing. Skin is skin & hides are hides. Do we differentiate hides from pelts? How technical do we get? Who gets to decide? How are the standards determined? Big joke.

hereandnow What's the difference between fur and leather? Will all the BLT crowd give up their leather toys in support of this new-found morality?

hereandnow Take those ugly calfskin shoes that all the white cis males wear with you 🤢🤮

hereandnow

hereandnow That should include leather of all sorts. You can’t have one without the other

hereandnow Trump will not use executive privilege and try to block that? It is California and a lot of trappers chew tobacco.

hereandnow Obviously going for the mink and fox vote.

hereandnow So fur is bad but leather is ok

hereandnow Dislike

hereandnow They should ban defecating in the street first shouldn't they?

hereandnow Faux fur troubles me though. It's microplastic. Fur will biodegrade. Honestly we need to stop buying anything that even looks like fur.

hereandnow Good! Fur is beautiful, luscious, sensual - but truly horrifying.

hereandnow About time

hereandnow Next they'll outlaw meat unless it's made from insects

hereandnow

hereandnow Yayyy

hereandnow Thank you California!
