Perceived value of high end brushes

No criticism, just my personal preference. Up to 2016 China was the only major industrialised nation with no animal rights legislation. I am really pleased to see that after international pressure the Chinese government is at last taking animal rights seriously. It has embarked on a 2 year plan to meet minimum standards (agreed 2017) but it is work in progress and many organisations involved in animal welfare, not just PETA, have expressed concern and are monitoring progress. I'll get off my hobby horse now, promise.

...and yet in the UK and US where we have animal welfare legislation we still had an epizootic - bovine spongiform encephalopathy, caused by cattle being fed the remains of other cattle resulting in the fatal degeneration of the brain and spinal cords of some who consumed infected cattle. And in the states intensive pig farming results in a sow spending its entire life in a gestation or farrowing crate without contact with other pigs; easy to knock the Chinese and give-in to lazy stereotypes, but probably better looking closer to home first...

What about the ozone, all the nasty stuff involved in manufacturing the can, and the plastic top, and the paint on the can?

We both agree that animal welfare is more than important but businesses like PETA don't always help.
I have been called a tree hugger and a yoghurt knitter but when a charity becomes an entity that must make bigger profits than the previous year they have lost something.
