Perhaps you love LV because of how fancy it looks or because of the Brand itself.
Little do people know that the Monogram Louis Vuitton Purses and all of their other Monogram products are made with what is called…”Canvas” but in real terms..
Vinyl mix fabrication.
The material to be used as a purse might be a genius and could be considered as one of the best man-made fabrication. However, do we actually understand the meaning of VINYL?
If you say you are trying to be environmentally friendly and trying to go green and if you are put in a place to kill either one cow for your purse of 100 cows which one would you choose?
To produce a man-made compound called vinyl they would have to go through chemical process.
Vinyl falls under the plastic category.
If you know your environment reports on plastic, you will know how toxic it is to the environment and how much toxins it produces around the plastic manufacturers. These toxins kill many small organisms, causes diseases, kills babies, and affects deformed babies, and many other animals if they are exposed to it.
Something to think about as we all do LIVE together in this Circle of Life and how much we depend on our resources and the environment.
