It is really good to check historical case studies, too! Like the 19th century feather fashions. The campaign to eliminate the feather trade by the early @rspb.bsky.social and others was eventually successful and driven by 5 key arguments, most imporantly relational values: doi.org/10.1002/pan3...

I explored the story of the @rspb.bsky.social campaign against feather fashions in detail doi.org/10.1002/pan3...
Feather fashions involved using not only feathers but also wings, skins, heads and whole bodies. And they were not limited to egret feathers, but involved all species of birds!
