  I think...

  ..wearing a vintage fur coat is ethically okay.  Wouldn't this be the same as using a gold/diamond ring that's been in the family for years?  Seems like the same principal to me.  Please don't tell me to donate my mother's engagement ring to the homeless!

  Or, how about having the coat made into pillows or a throw for the couch?  That way you wouldn't have to offer explanations to strangers who don't know your ethics.

  I say, keep the coat and enjoy it.  Nothing you decide to do with it will compensate for what is long past.

  Snacks

  Paper cups? Hershey chocolate?  Umbra, is your blood sugar low?  What's wrong with reusable cups or bowls?   You mentioned fair trade chocolate and then gave your blessing to Hershey because it's local????  I am very disappointed.On Umbra on dorm snacks posted 3 years, 8 months ago 5 Responses
