One year after the closure of the last mink farm in France, and with it the end of fur production in our country, it is time to say farewell to this cruel industry in the whole of Europe!
Supported by One Voice, the European Citizens’ Initiative (ECI) for a ban on the production and marketing of fur in all member states has already reached a million signatures! The collection of European citizens’ signatures will end on 18 May; we must ensure that 500,000 additional people get involved for these animals.
One Voice is organising coordinated action in a dozen towns in France on the weekend of 14 and 15 January. They will also participate in their partners’ action in front of the Samaritaine [department store] in Paris, to put an end to this deadly fad in Europe.
