The Dark and Disturbing World of Silk

It’s pretty obvious why some people choose not to eat meat or wear fur, but why someone wouldn’t use silk is just plain baffling to most. So here’s the deal.

And why would we? This certainly isn’t going to make us want to reach for our wallets, instead it is likely to make us reel with disgust.

Just like cows, chickens and pigs, silk worms are domesticated, raised and bred on factory farms and are also killed by the hundreds of millions every year. To make one single pound of silk 2000-3000 worms have to be slaughtered.
