LIVESTOCK'S LONGER SHADOW
Hope Lives in Kindness
Livestock's Longer Shadow: Hope Lives in Kindness
Published: 15 November 2021
Most people have little idea how eating animal-based foods harms our health, our planet and the animals we farm. We accept the illnesses we suffer are simply a consequence of getting old. We want to believe the animals we eat do not suffer pain, injury and live good lives. We want to believe our food choices do not cause deforestation. We are told farmers are the guardians of the countryside, yet our landscape is over-cultured and biologically dysfunctional, and our environment polluted by livestock farming. Livestock’s Longer Shadow, cuts through the noise for anyone wanting to know how we really treat our health, our planet and livestock through the ways we farm and consume animals, through a UK lens.
