Pierre Grzybowski, Fabric Depot, informationvine.com, Ala Moana: People who oppose fur buy it accidentally because some clothing manufacturers and sellers are mislabeling it as “faux fur.” I unknowingly bought a vest from REI many years ago that I now know is not “faux”. Much of retailed “faux fur” is from raccoon dogs and domestic cats and dogs stolen from pet owners. Both manufacturers and sellers know that consumers are less likely to buy fur if they think it came from a dog or cat, so they say it didn’t. How do you know if your ”faux” fur is real? Separate the fur and look at the base. Genuine fur usually protrudes from skin or leather, while faux fur has a mesh or threaded backing. Look at the tips of the hairs. Real animal hairs taper to a fine point unless they have been sheared or cut. Faux fur, on the other hand, typically does not taper at the ends. Remove a few hairs and hold them with tweezers over a nonflammable surface. Light them with a match or a lighter. Burning animal hair smells like burning human hair. Fake fur, which is commonly made from acrylic or polyester, smells like melting plastic when burned. I am urgently appealing to you to help lead our local and global communities to end the demand for the supply of clothing sold under the guise of "faux fur". If you are selling any type of "faux fur" lining in your product, you are part of this supply chain perpetrated by ruthless, unregulated Chinese fur traders who profit and exist because you stock your retail inventory with their product. Please view this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMIvhu1EznA (and google other references on “Chinese faux fur”) These images are horrific and haunting and I will not ignore them to make myself feel better. I am begging you to please remove any of these products from your inventory and make a public commitment about your opposition to participate this trade. I'd like you to become an international leader by boycotting Chinese Faux Fur. I am petitioning China's President, Xi Jinping, the retailers listed above, and several animal welfare activists worldwide in hopes that we can help eradicate this barbaric trade of domestic and wild animals. My goal is to gain one million signatures worldwide for this petition. Please share with as many humans as you can to help this gain momentum 动量. Peace

You are all AMAZING humans with powerful influence on our planet, thank you for signing. Margaret Meade is correct. "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." We must rise together with our light to illuminate the dark in our species, and eliminate it. Please stand with me. If you can share this, please help me reach a goal of one million, I will be eternally grateful. Peace.
