Farm Factories

"As to the oft repeated claim that industrial animal agriculture provides cheap food, this is only cheap at the cash register - significant costs such as cleaning up pollution and increased health care costs in CAFO areas are 'externalized' - that is, passed on to the public as taxes."

"If we are to evolve beyond the modern industrialized animal factory mindset, we must universally adopt a worldview that puts the health and care of all involved in the food production system above short-term profits and cheap calories at any cost."
