Put an end to the factory farming of animals
Slaughtering, abusing and violently treating a household pet is known as abuse, and can be a criminal offence. So why is it acceptable to produce meat and other certain foods this way? Innocent animals stuffed into small cages, lived an abnormal and abused lifestyle is still allowed?
The meat industry tells consumers that factory farms are modern, efficient and produce cheap food. But factory farms leave consumers with fewer choices and make them pay more for meat, poultry and dairy products, while farmers get paid less.
Factory farms increase the risk of pathogens like E. coli and salmonella that cause food-borne illness in people. And bad practices on even a few factory farms can end up on everyone’s plate.
