Top 7 Reasons to Ditch Wool
After a PETA video exposé revealed that workers kicked, stomped on, and mutilated sheep used for wool, millions of people realized that, like fur, wool is a product of almost unimaginable cruelty.
More and more people are ditching wool. Here are seven reasons to make the switch to synthetic fibers:
7. Because there is no excuse for torturing animals like this.
6. Because you might not be able to stomach all 60 seconds.
