[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2218271, member: 196898"] Hang onto that posh frock if I were you. If animals get the push like we are sort of discussing in this thread, then the sourcing of clothing will be greatly discontinued as well. No leather, no silk, no wool, no cotton (finishing and washing uses animal biproducts like lanolin etc, Certainly no fur, and if the fossil fuels get the chop too then most synthetics will go too since carbolic acid will disappear and most nylon or acetate based fabrics will no longer be around. We will have hemp, flax, and cellulose of course (or should that be coarse) so sackcloth will make a fetching comeback. Sales of palmoil will need to go up since soap and detergent will be in short supply, most lubricants are either animal or fossil fuel based too. We won't even have tallow for candles. Dark ages coming up, methinks. [/QUOTE]
