“In this life we cannot always do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”
~Mother Teresa
Farm animals are the most abused creatures on earth.
99% of animals raised for food are part of the factory farming system.
Factory farming has disastrous effects on the environment.
Modern agriculture is responsible for 14.5% of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, contributing greatly to the strain placed on our natural resources.
Industrialized agriculture is an unjust system.
99% of our food is produced by industrial agriculture. Most of these facilities are located in low income communities, require employees to work extended hours for minimal pay, and present unsafe working conditions.
For local farmers, livestock provides livelihoods.
The livestock economy serves as the primary source of income for poor rural populations in low and middle income countries. Factory farming has gravely impacted the livelihood of these local farming communities.
