We've been reporting over the last couple of weeks about a £358m underspend over the last three years from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs' £2.4 billion agriculture annual budget for England. Farmers are furious at the scale of this underspend and there are concerns that the money will be lost for good in cuts in this autumn's government spending review. Now a former Defra director says it's critical that this money isn't lost from the farming budget. Henry Dimbleby was Defra's lead non-executive board member for five years up until spring last year when he resigned over what he said was the then Government's failure to tackle obesity, something he'd highlighted as a priority in his independent National Food Strategy, commissioned by the Government. An animal welfare charity says it's filmed tonnes of dead and dying salmon being removed from a fish farm just hours before Members of the Scottish Parliament visited the site for a fact finding mission. Holyrood's Rural Affairs committee visited Dunstaffnage fish farm near Oban on Monday as part of their inquiry into whether the industry's made progress in tackling significant environmental concerns. The campaign group Animal Equality has accused the industry of trying to cover up the fish deaths, but Scottish Sea Farms who own the farm, says the workers were carrying out routine clearance of the pens. The need for clean energy has led to a large increase in offshore wind farms and electricity generated in them has to be brought inland. That means hundreds of miles of underground cabling is being channelled through the countryside with some farmers having little choice about whether they go across their land. Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: AEBr 2024 Summit Retrospective, published by Leo Arruda on August 7, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. [Versão em português abaixo] This retrospective provides an overview of the AEBr 2024 Summit, highlighting successes and areas for improvement. We welcome your feedback and comments to help enhance future EA Brazil conferences. Bottom Line Up Front The AEBr Summit 2024 was a success. It had 220 attendees who felt welcome and satisfied, generating around 850 connections at a cost of $45.45 per attendee. Date: June 29, 2024 Venue: INOVA.USP, University of São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil. The first Brazilian national EA conference ~220 people attended (62% were new to EA) 36 speakers 24 sessions including talks, panels, meetups, and office hours 5 organizations represented at the Career fair Feedback survey results: A 9,1/10 likelihood to recommend score An average of 6,1 new connections per person Photos and video! The AEBr Summit Overview The AEBr Summit took place on June 29, 2024, at the University of São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil. It was EA Brazil's first national meeting, with contributions from numerous experts and organizations aligned with Effective Altruism, primarily from the animal cause sector ( Sinergia animal, Animal Equality, Forum Animal, Mercy for Animals, Sea Shepherd and Sociedade Vegetariana Brasileira), as well as health and development organizations like Doebem, Associação Brasileira de Psicólogos Baseadas em Evidências and Impulso Gov. The primary goal was to expand and strengthen the Brazilian EA community by inviting both newcomers and experienced members to join together for a day of inspiring talks, workshops, and networking. The event was funded by the Centre for Effective Altruism and supported by the Innovation Center of the University of São Paulo ( INOVA USP). Delicious vegan meals were provided by Sociedade Vegetariana Brasileira (SVB), contributing to the event's success. The expectation was to bring together 200 people, so it was an accomplishment to register 255 applicants, with 220 attending, among speakers and volunteers. Highlights The event featured 220 attendees 36 speakers 40 very dedicated volunteers 26 sessions ( event program in Portuguese) 13 talks on the main causes of Effective Altruism. 7 workshops. 4 Q&A sessions with experts. 2 meet ups. 5 organizations represented at the Career fair Event photos and video (many thanks to Ivan Martucci for the professional editing). Based on the feedback responses from 60 attendees (27%): Average participant satisfaction: 9.2 out of 10 in Likelihood to Recommend. This is higher than the average for EA Global and EAGx. An average of 6,1 new connections per person. This is lower than most EAG and EAGx events, but the event lasted only one day. 46% of connections were considered potentially 'impactful' by the attendees (Note: assessing the impact of connections can be subjective). Team The AEBr Summit core team comprised Juana Maria, Leo Arruda, Ivan Martucci, and Adriana Arauzo. They were supported by Ollie Base and Arthur Malone from the CEA events team. The core team worked remotely except for some site visits. Two members of the team worked together in person in São Paulo during the final week. While remote work was effective, in-person collaboration proved significantly easier, especially since some members didn't know each other well beforehand. In hindsight, it would have been beneficial for the team to meet and work in person earlier, ideally two weeks in advance of the summit rather than just one. There were 40 volunteers divided into various roles: communication, logistics, food and catering, room supervision, speaker liaison, admissions, reception, and community health. Most volunteers were already engaged in the community, but a few were completely new. Special thanks to Ivan...

An absolute treat of an episode this week as we were asked to interview long-time advocates Leah Garcés and Sharon Núñez, live from the Animal and Vegan advocacy summit in Washington DC in May earlier this year.From anger in Leah's 20's to some eye opening potential prison-time in the past for Sharon, our esteemed guests walk us through their experiences over the last 20 years of their tireless work for animals. A nostalgic and powerful look back and projection forward from these two powerhouse leaders. Leah Garcés is president of Mercy For Animals and author of Grilled: Turning Adversaries into Allies to Change the Chicken Industry. She has nearly 20 years of leadership experience in the animal protection movement and has partnered with some of the world's largest food companies on her mission to build a better food system.Sharon Núñez is the co-founder and president of Animal Equality, a leading international animal protection organization ranked as one of the most effective animal rights organizations in the world for three consecutive years by Animal Charity Evaluators.Show notes to follow..00:00:00:00 | Intro00:01:10:10 | How have things changed in the past 20 years?00:06:10:16 | What sparked a different approach for a long fight?00:14:42:16 | Key challenges over the past 20 years00:22:22:15 | Resources00:28:01:10 | Strategic lessons00:34:46:01 | Personal lessons00:41:35:05 | Can we be optimistic with the change of the last 20 years?00:45:47:14 | Should resources be going to new organizations or the largest ones?00:49:19:16 | How do you balance work in the Movement and your personal life?00:53:27:02 | What has to be done to fulfill all the corporate commitment in the next few yearsIf you enjoy the show, please leave a rating and review us - we would really appreciate it!

Edie is the Managing Director and a Solicitor at Advocates for Animals, the first UK law firm dedicated to animal protection.In this episode, we chat to Edie about representing The Humane League UK in the up and coming court case challenging DEFRA. The judicial review case will see Advocates for Animals argue that fast-growing chicken breeds are illegal under current animal welfare laws. We also talk through their enforcement work with Animal Equality, another first-of-its-kind case in the UK. Edie talks to us about how using the law to protect animals is a neglected area of work and why she wants to see more advocates utilising this tool as an effective tool for animal advocacy.Relevant links to things mentioned throughout the show:Advocates for Animals websiteAnimal Law Foundation websiteEnforcement problem report in collaboration with Animal EqualityThe Humane League's legal battle against DEFRAGuardian article on THL's legal case against DEFRAIf you enjoy the show, please leave a rating and review us - we would really appreciate it!

On this week's episode of Animal Matters, we chat with Abigail Penny, the UK Executive Director at Animal Equality.Animal Equality is an international animal protection organisation, and they're most well known for their undercover investigations. Those investigations recently fed into a BBC Panorama documentary that aired in February, which exposed the UK's dairy industry. The documentary sparked considerable debate in the UK thanks in large part to the damning undercover footage, gathered by Animal Equality. Not only did it expose examples of cruel and illegal behaviour, but it also showcased the inherently cruel farming practices that are considered normal, industry-standard behaviour.   BBC Panorama documentary - "A Cow's Life: The True Cost of Milk?" A short edit of Animal Equality's undercover footage used in the documentary can be found on their website.

Andre Peters setzt sich seit Jahren von Herzen für den Tierschutz ein und gibt uns in dieser Folge unglaublich wertvolle und interessante Einblicke in seine tägliche Arbeit für Animal Equality. Auch mir persönlich liegt das Thema Tierschutz schon seit vielen Jahren am Herzen und ich hoffe, dass Andre und ich auch dich in dieser Folge für dieses so wichtige Thema sensibilisieren und motivieren können. Wir gestalten mit unserem Verhalten, unserem Handeln und auch mit unserem Konsum die Welt von Morgen und ich glaube es ist an der Zeit zu verstehen, dass das Recht zu leben kein Menschenrecht ist. Es gilt für alle Lebewesen auf diesem Planeten und ich bin überzeugt davon, dass Mitgefühl und Empathie uns allen mitgegeben wurde, dass das Eigenschaften sind die wir alle von Natur aus besitzen und die uns verbinden - und die wir aber vergessen oder verlernt haben. Ich freue mich, abgesehen von meinem persönlich Konsum, nun auch in Form dieses Podcasts meinen Teil zu diesem Thema beizutragen und wünsche dir jetzt viel Freude, hoffentlich weitere Erkenntnisse und auch Gründe um auch dein Herz für dieses Thema - und alles was es für dich persönlich mit sich bringt - zu öffnen. Ab sofort kannst Du mich und diesen Podcast auf Patreon unterstützen! http://patreon.com/chrisfader7 Auf Patreon kannst Du zwischen verschiedenen Möglichkeiten wählen und bekommst dadurch Zugriff auf ganz exklusive Inhalte, Videos & Musik, sowie Livestreams und mehr - Dinge, die Du sonst nirgends finden wirst!

welcome to the nonlinear library, where we use text-to-speech software to convert the best writing from the rationalist and ea communities into audio. this is: Big List of Cause Candidates, published by NunoSempere on the effective altruism forum. Many thanks to Ozzie Gooen for suggesting this project, to Marta Krzeminska for editing help and to Michael Aird and others for various comments. In the last few years, there have been many dozens of posts about potential new EA cause areas, causes and interventions. Searching for new causes seems like a worthy endeavour, but on their own, the submissions can be quite scattered and chaotic. Collecting and categorizing these cause candidates seemed like a clear next step. We —Ozzie Gooen of the Quantified Uncertainty Research Institute and I— might later be interested in expanding this work and eventually using it for forecasting —e.g., predicting whether each candidate would still seem promising after much more rigorous research. At the same time, we feel like this list itself can be useful already. Further, as I kept adding more and more cause candidates, I realized that aiming for completeness was a fool's errand, or at least too big a task for an individual working alone. Below is my current list with a simple categorization, as well as an occasional short summary which paraphrases or quotes key points from the posts linked. See the last appendix for some notes on nomenclature. If there are any entries I missed (and there will be), please say so in the comments and I'll add them. I also created the "Cause Candidates" tag on the EA Forum and tagged all of the listed posts there. They are also available in a Google Sheet. Animal Welfare and Suffering Pointer: This cause has its various EA Forum tags (farmed animal welfare, wild animal welfare, meat alternatives), where more cause candidates can be found. Brian Tomasik et al.'s Essays on Reducing Suffering are also a gift that keeps on giving for this and other cause areas. 1.Wild Animal Suffering Caused by Fires Related categories: Politics: System change, targeted change, policy reform. Wild animal suffering caused by fires and ways to prevent it: a noncontroversial intervention (@Animal_Ethics) An Animal Ethics grantee designed a protocol aimed at helping animals during and after fires. The protocol contains specific suggestions, but the path to turning these into policy is unclear. 2. Invertebrate Welfare Invertebrate Welfare Cause Profile (@Jason Schukraft) The scale of direct human impact on invertebrates (@abrahamrowe) "In this post, we apply the standard importance-neglectedness-tractability framework to invertebrate welfare to determine, as best we can, whether this is a cause area that is worth prioritizing. We conclude that it is." Note: See also Brian Tomasik's Do Bugs Feel Pain. 3. Humane Pesticides Humane Pesticides as the Most Marginally Effective Cause (@JeffMJordan) Improving Pest Management for Wild Insect Welfare (@Wild_Animal_Initiative) The post argues that insects experience consciousness, and that there are a lot of them, so we should give them significant moral weight (comments contain a discussion on this point). The post goes on to recommend subsidization of less-painful pesticides, an idea initially suggested by Brian Tomasik, who "estimates this intervention to cost one dollar per 250,000 less-painful deaths." The second post goes into much more depth. 4. Diet Change Is promoting veganism neglected and if so what is the most effective way of promoting it? (@samuel072) Animal Equality showed that advocating for diet change works. But is it cost-effective? (@Peter_Hurford, @Marcus_A_Davis) Cost-effectiveness analysis of a program promoting a vegan diet (@nadavb, @sella, @GidonKadosh, @MorHanany) Measuring Change in Diet for Animal Advocacy (@Jacob_Peacock) The first post is a stub. The second post looks at a reasonably high-powered study on individual outreach. It concludes that, based on reasonable assum...

Everything is connected much more than we have ever realised. We are dependent on the nature that surrounds us much more than nature is dependent on us, in fact. This is why we should stop perceiving nature as something to conquer and start seeing it as our life-support system, argues our amazing guest, dr Sylvia Earle, also known as “Her Deepness”. We discuss the ways in which oceans and life that inhabits them are treated today and how they should be treated from now onward. We discuss tuna and octopuses, sharks, and oxygen production, and so much more in this conversation that has the power to stop you from ever eating fish again.LINKS“National Geographic Ocean: A Global Odyssey” by Sylvia Earle“Half mile down” by William Beebe“Reason for hope” by Jane Goodall“Silent spring” by Rachel CarsonBooks by Carl Safina“Last chance to see” by Douglas Adams and Mark Carwardine

The Supreme Court of the United States has rejected the meat industry's challenge to a California law prohibiting cruel confinement of farmed animals! This is a HUGE victory for animal rights and the animals themselves! On June 28, 2021, the Supreme Court of the United States rejected the North American Meat Institute's (NAMI) challenge to California's Proposition 12. Proposition 12 is due to go into effect on January 1, 2022. It strengthens existing California law to ban the intensive confinement of egg-laying chickens, mother pigs and calves used in the veal industry. The law also prohibits the sale in California of eggs, pork and veal from facilities that confine animals in cruel cages. Voters adopted Proposition 12 in 2018. When NAMI sued California in an attempt to stop the state from implementing Proposition 12, Animal Outlook voluntarily intervened in the lawsuit on behalf of the State of California to defend Proposition 12 and protect the millions of hens, pigs and calves used to produce meat and eggs sold in California. Animal Outlook was joined by Animal Equality, Animal Legal Defense Fund, Compassion in World Farming, Farm Sanctuary, the Humane League and the Humane Society of the United States. In rejecting NAMI's challenge, the Supreme Court upheld an appellate court's denial of NAMI's claim that Proposition 12 violated the United States Constitution. The Supreme Court's decision affirms the right of states to pass laws protecting animals, public health and safety. While an appeal in a second lawsuit against Proposition 12, brought by the National Pork Producers Council, still looms, the Supreme Court's decision against NAMI is a massive victory for animals. AnimalOutlook.org is a great site to visit to get involved and learn more. Here to discuss all this is Animal Outlook's legal counsel Will Lowrey.

Nuove investigazioni negli allevamenti italiani: Essere Animali in un allevamento di mucche da latte, Animal Equality in uno di suini. La vicenda degli orsi in Trentino. Secondo la LAV, la provincia vuole abbattere M62 e F43 Il polmone verde dell'Amazzonia emette più anidride carbonica di quanta riesca ad assorbirne Wet market cinesi messi sotto accusa, ma ancora operativi. Esistono delle realtà simili in Italia? La vicenda a lieto fine dell'alpaca Pedro, animale ferito e salvato da un rifugio.

Animal Equality, un'Organizzazione internazionale a tutela degli animali, ha presentato al segretario generale dell'Onu António Guterres, più di 569.000 firme, relative ad una petizione che chiede la fine della vendita di animali vivi nei wet market ( cioè nei mercati in cui si vendono, appunto, animale vivi ) di tutto il mondo.Animal Equality chiede, infatti, all'Onu di riconoscere ufficialmente i rischi che la vendita di animali vivi comporta per la salute globale e sollecita i politici di tutto il pianeta ad intervenire su questo grave problema.L'associazione animalista ricorda che questo tipo di commercio è causa di grande preoccupazione fra gli esperti. Già ad aprile, l'Organizzazione mondiale della sanità , l'OIE (Organizzazione mondiale per la salute animale) e l'UNEP ( Programma delle Nazioni Unite per l'ambiente) avevano chiesto congiuntamente la sospensione a livello mondiale della vendita di mammiferi selvatici vivi nei wet market, a causa dell'alto rischio che questi ambienti comportano per la trasmissione di malattie fra gli esseri umani.In quel documento le tre Agenzie Onu segnalavano, infatti, che «i virus dell'influenza aviaria possono essere trasmessi da animali infetti all'uomo durante la manipolazione e la macellazione nel contesto dei wet market. Ed è quindi importante limitare, per quanto possibile, lo stretto contatto tra animali vivi, le operazioni di macellazione e la presenza degli esseri umani in tali mercati».Inoltre, è molto probabile che anche la pandemia di Covid-19 abbia avuto un'origine animale.Numerosi scienziati e virologi denunciano da tempo che i wet market sono il brodo di coltura perfetto per le malattie di origine animale. Non a caso, secondo i Centri per il controllo e la prevenzione di malattie degli Stati Uniti, il 75% di tutte le malattie nuove o emergenti nell'uomo è di provenienza animale.Dal momento che sono diversi gli scienziati che pensano che la pandemia di Covid-19 sia nata in un wet market, nel 2020 Animal Equality ha pubblicato due indagini che mostravano le scioccanti condizioni igieniche nei mercati tradizionali in Cina, Vietnam e India. «Queste inchieste – sottolinea l'Organizzazione animalista – hanno documentato l'estrema negligenza e le crudeltà di cui gli animali sono vittime all'interno di questi luoghi insalubri che ancora oggi, nonostante gli avvertimenti dei funzionari sanitari, continuano a esistere».Anche altre epidemie come SARS e H5N1 sono state scientificamente collegate ai mercati tradizionali, dove animali selvatici e domestici di ogni genere sono stipati insieme in piccole gabbie ricoperte dai fluidi e dagli escrementi provenienti da quelle superiori e Animal Equality spiega come, all'interno di questi luoghi, le norme igienico-sanitarie, il benessere degli animali e le pratiche di macellazione che dovrebbero essere osservate vengano, invece, regolarmente ignorate. Occorre, quindi, portare il problema della vendita di animali vivi nei wet market all'attenzione del Consiglio di sicurezza delle Nazioni Unite e degli altri leader globali che hanno il potere di attuare rapidamente restrizioni in riferimento a questi luoghi pericolosi e disumani.Nel consegnare le firme raccolte per la petizione all'ONU, Animal Equality, conclude scrivendo che i mercati degli animali vivi rappresentano un innegabile rischio per la salute e la sicurezza delle persone in tutto il mondo. Sono terreno fertile per malattie ed estremamente crudeli nei confronti degli animali. Pertanto, per proteggere la sicurezza umana e porre fine alla sofferenza di innumerevoli animali da allevamento, le loro attività devono essere assolutamente vietate.

Puntata numero 90 (594) - conduce Camilla Lattanzi: * In Svizzera è stato perso un importante referendum ambientalista, che avrebbe potuto ridurre sensibilmente i pesticidi e le emissioni di Co2 da fonti non rinnovabili, ma che è stato osteggiato da aziende petrolifere, automobilistiche e da tanti cittadini non (ancora) disposti a rinunciare a qualcosa per dare un futuro al pianeta; * Il Parlamento europeo ha accolto l'appello della campagna “End the cage age” e ha chiesto alla Commissione Ue proposte legislative per vietare l'uso delle gabbie negli allevamenti europei in nome del benessere animale; * L'associazione Animal Equality ha pubblicato un video recentemente girato in una normale giornata di lavoro all'interno di un mattatoio di Cremona. Il sistema dello smontaggio dei corpi animali è impressionante: sulla dura realtà del mattatoio si infrange ogni possibile riferimento a un utopico allevamento rispettoso del “benessere animale”: l'unico benessere possibile è il superamento del sistema carnista; * Raccontiamo due storie di primati: il primato di Israele, primo paese al mondo a vietare la vendita di pellicce nell'industria della moda, e la vicenda di tre primati non umani, Lucio, Bob e Charlie, i macachi usciti vivi dopo trent'anni di esperimenti subiti nei laboratori del dipartimento di Neuroscienze dell'Università di Verona. Dalle “sedie di contenzione” e gli elettrodi impiantati nel cranio, fino alla scoperta del cielo, della pioggia e dei rami sui quali arrampicarsi: emozioni negate ancora a tanti, troppi milioni di animali; * La ricetta di Gabriele Palloni è ispirata alla scelta di Israele di vietare le pellicce.

In Teil 2 unseres Interviews mit Tierärztin und Aktivistin Dörte Röhl sprechen wir über die Tierrechtsorganisation Animal Equality. Was unterscheidet Tierrecht von Tierschutz? Warum sind Hühner und Fische so großartige Tiere? Und wie können wir uns alle für Tiere einsetzen?  Das und mehr erfahrt ihr in der neuen Folge!   Shownotes: https://animalequality.de/blog/darum-bedrohen-lebendtiermaerkte-die-oeffentliche-gesundheit-eine-einschaetzung/ animalequality.de veggieworld.de @officialveggieworld @lars.walther.official    

Ep. 7 of Tales from Quarantine is with Matteo Cupi, executive director of Animal Equality Italy. We talked about his personal story and his mission to end factory farming. Matteo and Animal Equality have launched an international campaign to permanently ban all wet markets worldwide. For animals, wet markets are hell on Earth. For humans, they are incubators of novel diseases and a threat to our health and safety. SARS - a coronavirus - started in a wet market in China in 2003 and - scientists said - one of Wuhan's wet markets is the possible origin of COVID-19. Listen to the podcast to learn more about wet markets, Animal Equality, and the #BanWetMarkets campaign. [ITALIAN]

Tierrechtsaktivist und Tierrechtskommunikationstrainer André Peters deckt in unserem zweiteiligen Oster-Special auf welche Macht Traditionen und Bräuche über uns haben und wie somit auch bei unserem Osterfest die, eigentlich doch offensichtliche, Doppelmoral kaschiert wird. Du erfährst Fakten zum verborgenen Grauen hinter unseren Osterbräuchen und außerdem ganz tolle, simple und dennoch sehr wirksame Argumentationshilfen für deine persönliche Aufklärungsarbeit.

Puntata numero 19 (523) di domenica 9 febbraio 2020 (conduce Francesca De Matteis): * All’origine dei virus che seminano terrore e morte – ieri la Sars, oggi il Coronavirus – ci sono anche gli allevamenti intensivi di animali, un aspetto poco considerato, e che invece andrebbe affrontato, se davvero si volesse fare opera di prevenzione; * L’altruismo negli animali dimostrato nei pappagalli: una riflessione di Francesco De Giorgio; *Quasi nove italiani su cento (8,9% per la precisione) sono vegeteriani o vegani, secondo il Rapporto Eurispes 2020, e la tendenza è in aumento (+1,8% rispetto all’anno precedente): eppure il ministero della Salute, nella sua bozza di linee guida sull’alimentazione, vorrebbe ostacolare tale scelta, prevedendo l’obbligo di prescrizione medica per le mense pubbliche; * L'Associazione vittime della caccia ha completato il suo rapporto sulla stagione venatoria appena conclusa: il tributo di sangue umano pagato quest’anno si attesta a quota 94: 27 morti, 67 feriti; * Joaquin Phoenix, star hollywoodiana , candidato all’Oscar per la sua interpretazione nel film “Joker”, ha partecipato a Londra a una manifestazione di Animal Equality contro gli allevamenti di animali: “Un modo per mitigare i cambiamenti climatici – ha detto l’attore – passa attraverso i nostri consumi, scegliendo un’alimentazione a base vegetale“; * Essere attivisti ambientalisti e animalisti in molte zone del mondo è molto rischioso: in Messico è stato ucciso Homero Gomez, noto per il suo impegno contro i disboscamenti e per la protezione dell’habitat delle farfalle monarca.

I see the pledge program a lot as a means to an end to get institutional change to happen… We're spending about 40% of our staff time and resources on corporate engagement and institutional change. While the marketing side of things is also there to sort of make the corporate side happen… [Veganuary's place in the movement is] using the idea of the pledge program and driving a corporate change with it.- Ria RehbergVeganuary focuses primarily on its online vegan pledge program. But how can this online commitment be harnessed to encourage wider societal change?

As Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab generously promised that there would be 'adequate food' were we to have a no deal situation (and the rest), Mike and Katie discuss the latest hoo hah that accumulated over the weekend. Hugh calls in to give his two cents on the latest news. Apparently Brits are taking their own teabags on holidays abroad (let's face it, only the best will do) - show fave Grant Harold joins us to talk through various other quirks he has witnessed as The Royal Butler. And due to footage from an undercover operation of a supermarket's supply farms has revealed animals being treated appallingly, Dr Toni Shepherd, Executive Director of Animal Equality, who caught and released the footage to The Times, joins Katie and Mike to explain how the 'Red Tractor' label, which many consumers have trusted as a sign of quality, is not at all what it seems.

This week The ChickPeeps take a more serious turn as we investigate the issue with dairy and exactly why vegans don't consume it. Many non-vegans argue that taking its milk doesn't hurt cows and that in fact milking actually relieves the cow. We explore the reasons why this is a myth, and discuss the results of quitting dairy products entirely. We also interview two of the founders of Animal Equality, and creators of the groundbreaking iAnimal project, Jose Valle and Sharon Nunez, who recount in vivid detail the experiences they've had on dairy farms and the typical life of a dairy cow. Also on this episode... Is there more suffering in a glass of milk? 'You're not lactose intolerant, you're just not a baby cow.' The gifts/health benefits cows give you when you stop eating their secretions. Evy expresses her frustration with evolution to provide cows with adequate weaponry - why no fanged cows yet? Momo suggests carving holes in animals is probably not to their liking. Why do people think calcium is synonymous with dairy milk?  The Chickpeeps discuss their favourite dairy substitutes. Is dairy a feminist issue? How Animal Equality was founded. Jose shares how the iAnimal project was conceived. Tylor: 'These Animals are children who are then forced to have children who are then taken away just so we can drink their milk.' Is there an ethical way to consume dairy? The future for dairy farms.
