on Prop 2 campaign reports a tidal wave of voter and donor support from Californians backing the effort to stop the cruel and inhumane treatment of animals on industrial factoryfarms. Tags: eggs california farmanimal welfare factoryfarm chickens. Chief economist? That's so cool!
" That's Why We Don't Eat Animals: A Book About Vegans, Vegetarians, and All Living Things ," written and illustrated by Ruby Roth, has gorgeous and haunting illustrations. And it gently tells the story of why we shouldn't eat factoryfarmedanimals. There is no mention of that solution, but I worry. And then what?
The column, which you can read here , is a call to arms to factory farmers to fight back against those individuals and organizations working to protect farmanimals from the abuses inherent in factoryfarms. To learn more about Arizona's precedent-setting victory for farmanimals, see here.
A decision not to eat dogs has nothing to do with our inherent hypocrisy, but with our relationship to different animals. Dogs were bred to be companion animals; pigs and cows are raised as food.

Factoryfarms are concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) where animals are raised intensively and permanently confined in warehouses and sheds.
Animalsraised for food suffer miserably. The overwhelming passage in November of Proposition 2 in California, which banned tight confinement of many of the animalsraised for food, is a fine example of the power of publicity to educate people about the atrocities we commit to those animals who have no voice of their own.
There is also little dispute concerning the following premise: (4) The animals that become that meat are reared in ways that subject them to intense pain and suffering for much of their lives. It is not in dispute that, in modern factoryfarms, animals are raised in massively overcrowded, unnatural warehouses.
