It’s the beginning of the end of the bloody fur trade, as the trendsetting American city, West Hollywood, is about to go fur-free. BOB talks to ED BUCK, a political activist instrumental in advancing the “FUR-FREE WE HO” campaign, about a big rally in support of it this Saturday, and what has to happen in Tuesday’s election for West Hollywood to ban the sale of this horrible out-of-fashion cruelty. BOB’s creative contribution to the campaign was the chant”WE HO, WE HO, FUR FREE WE GO!””And the winner of this year’s Academy Award for Best Actress goes to…A VEGAN!” Yes, Natalie Portman of “Black Swan” is vegan. But ballet shoes are not, as they are usually made with leather and suede. Portman’s people made the call to our guest, dancer and choreographer CYNTHIA KING for her famous cruelty-free Cynthia King Vegan Ballet Slippers. Bravo!Also – a new UN study tells us how to cut the pace of climate change in half, and with all the attention on Wisconsin, BOB has a word on behalf of badgers.
