Many brands don\u2019t know where their leather comes from, which means that they can\u2019t impact suppliers and farmers. At the same time, suppliers and farmers don\u2019t know about the expectations that brands and retailers might have. Standards help provide a positive proof point, but with multiple options, it\u2019s hard for all parties to know which one to choose.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"block-content-image__col col-12 col-lg-6 offset-lg-1 image-right order-lg-last\">\n\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"aspectratio ratio-4x3 block-content-image__image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"630\" height=\"474\" src=\"https:\/\/textileexchange.org\/app\/uploads\/2022\/09\/cow-in-hazy-pasture-630x474.jpg\" class=\"attachment-half-width-hard size-half-width-hard\" alt=\"cow in a hazy orange pasture at sunrise.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/textileexchange.org\/app\/uploads\/2022\/09\/cow-in-hazy-pasture-630x474.jpg 630w, https:\/\/textileexchange.org\/app\/uploads\/2022\/09\/cow-in-hazy-pasture-630x474@2x.jpg 1260w\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section id=\"page-block-block_d6c48eb1098615cb3955179252d79227\" class=\"acf-block block-content-image has-cloud-background-color\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row align-items-center\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"block-content-image__col col-12 col-lg-5 offset-lg-1 content-right order-lg-last\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-content-image__content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"p1\">SOLUTIONS<\/h6>\n<h2 class=\"p3\">We\u2019re creating alignment on best practices and recognizing those who meet them.<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p5\">The Leather Impact Accelerator uses benchmarking and protocols to establish a set of minimum requirements for farms and suppliers to meet.

Forests are one of the world\u2019s best carbon stores and deforestation accelerates climate change. Cattle ranching is linked to agricultural expansion in some of the most important biomes on this planet. LIA addresses deforestation through its DCF Protocol, which enables farmers and farm groups to sell Impact Incentives to brands and be financially rewarded for their commitment to preserving the land.
