Intensive Farming

• The use of animals as food is a habit as old as humanity itself 


  Without existence of animals the human race would have died out
• Human digestive system adapted to eating meat


  would seem 'natural' for humans to use animals as food
• Hunting animals for food has turned into exploiting animals for food
• Mechanisation of agriculture contributed to population increase globally 


  Increases cruelty to animals on a massive scale
• 795 people are undernourished 


  Most loving to increase intensive farming (puts people first)
• Others: not as loving as the calculations maximise misery rather than love


  Looking for short-term solutions rather than long-term solution
• What is a pragmatic alternative?

  New technologies to develop meat grown in labs that are not from animals
