Description - The Future of Animal Farming by Marian Stamp Dawkins
Does animal welfare have a place in sustainable farming, or do the
demands of a rising human population and the threat of climate
change mean that the interests of animals must be put aside? Can we
improve the way we keep animals and still feed the world ? or
is it a choice between ethics and economics?
The aim of this book is to challenge the "them-and-us" thinking
that sets the interests of humans and farm animals against each
other and to show that to be really "sustainable," farming needs to
include, not ignore, animal welfare. The authors of this remarkable
book come from a diversity of backgrounds: industry, animal welfare
organizations, academic institutions, and practical farming. They
are united in arguing that farm animals matter and that sustainable
farming must have animal welfare at its ethical core, along with
the production of healthy, affordable food and care for the
environment.
