Angry The "Green" Pro-Fur Campaign....ugh

I found this website on my Gmail page as an advertisement...I am SO enraged by this website! Fur is Green - A New Vision of Fur, for an Eco-Conscious World!
Obviously, the fur trade has found a new way to make fur seem glamorous again through the avenue of the popular "go green" trend. This makes me angry, because there are a lot of ignorant people out there, whom are following this "green" trend because its the fashionable thing to do these days; are going to think that by buying fur they are doing something good for the world. There are plenty of natural fabrics out there are don't involve the farming of animals.
Did they forget about COTTON? Its a natural fabric that does not support cruelty. They are just using this "fur is green" propaganda to lure people back into buying fur. Not to mention the space, waste (added green house gases kind of like large cow farms), and food. It's not as green of a solution as they are trying to make people believe.
I find it ironic that on this entire website, they do not specify how their farmed animals are "humanely euthanized".
