For actress and activist such as Emma it’s all about using her platform to bring attention to ethically-sourced and lab-created alternatives for the masses. She made a statement at the 2018 Academy Awards, “arriving with earrings made from lab-grown diamonds and recycled gold.” She is always supportive with ethical and environmental issues to the publicity.
