Think about it: If your leather car seats are dead animal skin, then why haven't then begun rotting? Why doesn't your designer purse smell terrible as the leather degrades? Toxic, harsh chemicals are used to preserve leather into maintaining its softness and durability. Several of the chemicals used in treating leather are cyanide based and coal-tar derived. On an environmental level, (according to the EPA), factory farms where animals are raised for the purpose of high output meat and leather are the number one source of polluted rivers, lakes, and streams.
This is directly linked to the fact that these animals produce 130 times the excrement of the entire human population; that's a lot of excrement being dumped into our ecosystems every day! Where high production livestock farms are located, there are higher amounts of illnesses, sickness, and death.So what's the deal, then, with ancient societies using tanneries? Haven't people been tanning animal hide since the beginning of time? Undoubtedly, the answer is yes. However, one must take into consideration the scale of which ancient people were producing leather versus the scale of leather production today.
