Puma Will Stop Using Leather Shoes For Environmental Protection.

For environmental reasons,

In the future, I want to play soccer shoes and tennis.

Stop using in production

。

Jochen Zeitz, chairman of the sports goods manufacturers' Management Committee, said at the earth summit in Rio De Janeiro that finding alternative materials would not be a problem.

Everyone should eat less meat and less leather, and so is the fact.

Zeitz is one of the pioneers of environmental protection practice.

Last year, Puma group put forward a "ecological benefit account", which showed Puma group's

The cost and procurement and supply costs amounted to 145 million euros. In the first quarter of this year, Puma group's sales amounted to 821 million euros.

This indicates that the cost of raw material production and processing of the group has greatly affected the ecological performance of the group.

Leather processing costs most, mainly because animal husbandry needs a lot of water and land must be reclaimed, which has a negative effect on animals and animals.

In addition, chemical products and harmful substances are closely related to leather factories, which means that the shoes produced by Puma group have a great impact on the environment.

So we must find a new way to solve this problem.

This may seem inconceivable, but it is also possible to adopt a more economical approach, for example, a leather like product made in the laboratory.

Zeitz said we must find alternative ways of producing raw materials without destroying the environment.

Zeitz is a well-known business leader of the Rio +20 Earth Summit.
