I just learned from my friends at PETA that women's clothing brand Eileen Fisher refuses to stop selling wool, despite being informed of the abuse that sheep endure for it.
Instead, Eileen Fisher is introducing wool that meets the so-called Responsible Wool Standard, but this is just a cop-out. PETA has released seven exposés of 47 sheep operations across three continents, including in Argentina, Australia, Chile, Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Utah, revealing that sheep are mutilated, abused, and skinned alive for wool—including for wool that had been deemed "sustainable" and "responsible."
Please join me in telling the company that the only way to be truly humane is to drop all wool and instead offer items made only of warm, stylish, and cruelty-free fabrics. Thank you.
