Ah yes, you had your turkey day beginning of October iirc.
Yes, you bring up a good point that applies to the topic. As society changes and we progress, what do we hold onto and what do we discard. IMO, fur coats are legacy, unnecessary, and just a status symbol. There's really no reason for it.
We were more intrinsically dependant on the world around us before the industrial revolution, fur was an important item because it provided protection in harsh environments.
I don't see humans giving up meat, as food is a requirement. I agree we could eat less, and I support keeping the animals in a healthy environment during their time here.
