everyone knows microplastics and pollution is caused by clothes and not single use plastics, fossil fuels or various chemicals (single plastics being what non vegans definitely try to cut back on, most certainly). This is why we need to only buy leather and wool, which -definitely-use no chemicals at all or use up copious amounts of land or resources, or contrubute to zoonotic diseases spreading to humans. Dont buy second hand polyester materials or plant based clothes. Buy leather made from poor indian villagers and tortured cows. And sheep who are sheared by people who get paid by amount not by the hour, hence rough handling to keep up with demand, and wool treated in chemicals. Polyester bad, animal abu- i mean , local organic farming yada yada- good!
If some stupid dumb vegoon says otherwise, tell them they buy plants also harvested by exploited workers and that they arent 100% perfect (unlike nonvegans, who are 100% perfect and theres absolutely no abuse or harm in animal farming or slaughtering. all happy people!)
Humans shouldnt stop littering or endulging in consumerism (which is the HUGE and tbh ONLY reason plastic ends up in our enviorment in the first place) we should just keep breeding cows and sheep, just keep those greenhouse gases and toxic agricultural runoff flowing! i need a leather jacket or ill be sad, and i need to pretend to care about plastic waste so its perfect!
