Abstract

Synthetic plastic and animal leather: we love both. Plastic is convenient, and leather is durable and elegant. However, have we ever thought about their downsides? United Nations Environmental Programme has warned us that we are drowning in plastic pollution. Leather and its production process, on the other hand, pose damaging effects on environment and on human health. Probably, it is the time for us to change. But would it be possible? The answer is yes.
