Banning Fur

One of the world's most famous fashion brands recently made a surprising announcement.

Prada said that is would stop using real fur in 2020 and start using synthetic fur instead.

Now, many people are wondering whether all fashion companies should stop using fur.

Some people claim that all fashion brands should stop using real fur because it is cruel to animals.

Animals have to be killed to make fur clothes and accessories.

It is against the rights of animals to be treated this way.

In addition, some people say it is unnecessary to use real fur from animals anymore.

The technology that is used to make synthetic fur has gotten better.

So, there is no longer a big difference between real and synthetic fur.

However, other people argue that companies should still be able to use fur.

Humans benefit from animals in many different ways.

For example, they drink milk and eat meat.

It does not make sense to allow these things but prevent companies from using fur, these people say.

Furthermore, some people believe that companies should be able to listen to their customers.

There are still many customers who want to purchase real fur clothes and accessories.

So, companies should be able to make them for their clients.
