Campaigns against organisations, industries- or even individuals- are an important part of any social justice movement. But how do we know when we should bring a campaign to an end- or a pause- and how do we go about it?

The attacks began last summer when the UK animal rights group Animal Rising released a report and footage showing abuses on RSPCA Assured farms. They've since forced the RSPCA to cancel its 200th year celebrations, plastered portraits of RSPCA patron King Charles, and persuaded the ceremonial president and two vice-presidents of the RSPCA to resign in protest.

Animal Rising has made global headlines with its risk-taking actions including: sending hundreds of protesters to disrupt England's most famous horse race, rescuing lambs from the estate of the King of England and occupying massive dairy factories. Their mission is to reinvent humanity's broken relationship with animals by getting people to understand that it is morally wrong to use, abuse and kill animals for food, fashion, entertainment or experimentation. Often wearing matching pink sweatshirts, Animal Rising members risk arrest and even their lives to confront, in a nonviolent way, people who are participating in animal exploitation.

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: Ten minutes to speak up for ~4.5 million caged chickens, published by Ben Stevenson on June 24, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. (You can read this post as a Google Doc. You might find this easier to share with animal-sympathetic non-EAs. Also: I work at Rethink Priorities, but I'm writing in a personal capacity.) A few weeks ago, I shared some suggested responses for a Defra consultation on welfare labelling. I was really pleased to hear that many EAs and animal rights advocates wrote in to support the proposal. I'm now sharing a similar opportunity: ~ten minutes of your time to speak up for ~4.5 million caged chickens. If you want to help, you have less than 48 hours to get this done! What's the public consultation? The Scottish government is running a public consultation on their proposal to ban cages for layer hens. Agriculture is a devolved power so Holyrood have responsibility for Scottish animal welfare. Let's be clear: cage-free chickens have dramatically better lives than caged chickens. Liberating caged chickens alleviates a great deal of suffering.[1] Over 80% of Scottish layer hens are already cage-free. A greater proportion than across the whole UK, this is a testament to hard work from animal welfare campaigners. Nevertheless, a ban still seems really important: Corporate commitments might not last forever. A ban can lock in campaigners' hard-won victories and pre-empt businesses backsliding Corporate commitments and welfare schemes might not always be met or enforced. A recent investigation from Animal Rising revealed that at least one English farm kept chickens in cages despite being RSPCA Assured. We could have greater trust that chickens are truly free from cages if they were banned The pro-animal movement will have another win, which builds political momentum for our cause. The Scottish government notes that Luxembourg and Austria have already banned cages; that Germany, the Czech Republic and Slovakia are phasing them out; and that Australia aims to ban cages by 2036. If Scotland is attentive to other governments' bans, then other governments might pay attention to a Scottish ban 18% of Scottish layer hens are still so many - over a million - birds. None of them deserve to live their whole life condemned to a cage. The government are considering three options: 1. 2030 ban on enriched cage production 2. 2030 ban on installing new cages, and 2034 ban on enriched cage production 3. "Information campaign aimed at consumers to encourage all retailers who have not signed up to the retailer pledge and caterers to commit to stop stocking/selling eggs or egg products from enriched cages by 2034"[2] Option (2) is the default because the government thinks this best balances improving bird welfare and supporting the egg industry. This proposal is what the public consultation is about. I think pursuing (2) rather than (1) is really disappointing. Four more years of cages means up to 4.5 million layer hens will live their lives behind bars.[3] And there are only fifteen farms currently keeping caged layer hens in Scotland; do they really need four more years of warning? An instant ban on installing new cages and a 2030 ban on all enriched cage production seem eminently reasonable to me. How you can help You can access the public consultation here and submit your response by 25 June 2024. You don't have to be Scottish to respond. The consultation is divided into several pages. Only the 'About you' page is necessary.

Send us a Text Message.Two million scientific experiments were carried out on animals in the UK in 2022.More than four thousand Beagles were among them.Home office figures published in April 2024 show that  in 2022 there were 175 cases of non-compliance to government regulations regarding the welfare of animals used in testing. More than  16,000 animals were affected. The government is promising to investigate.MBR Acres in Cambridgeshire is a puppy farm, where beagles are bred to be tested on with toxic chemicals.Campaigners say the practice is cruel, outdated and unnecessary. Proponents argue animal tests are essential for the advancement of science.Outside MBR Acres is an encampment of protesters who have lived at the site for almost three years. John Curtin is one of them. He explains how they obtained footage inside the top security site - and how he's been arrested for flying a small drone over the site.John tells us how he has seen hundreds of vans carrying dogs from site, which they have followed across the UK to their final destinations - science laboratories.  He shares stories of animal rights group Animal Rising who have broken into the site and freed a number of dogs.I invited the following parties to participate in the podcast or provide a comment.

Después de la moratoria de 6 meses que ofrecía la nueva Ley de Bienestar Animal a los circos españoles, desde el pasado 29 de marzo se prohíben los espectáculos con animales silvestres. Os explicamos el caso de como transicionó un circo hacia un nuevo modelo sin animales, qué pasa con y donde acaban los animales de los circos y las excepciones a las que se podrían acoger los circos para continuar utilizando animales. ►¿Son eficaces las acciones de activismo disruptivas? Analizamos un caso práctico, dónde a partir de una acción disruptiva de Animal Rising en la carrera de caballos del Grand National, se midió la eficacia de la acción. Para ello, realizaron entrevistas antes y después de la protesta y comprobaron si las donaciones a la organización aumentaron o no cuando se difundió la noticia. ►Destacamos la importancia para el ecosistema marino de los arrecifes de coral y os explicamos el éxito de un proyecto de 4 años que se dedicó a plantar y hacer crecer poblaciones de arrecifes en Indonesia. ►Y como siempre, recomendaciones, repaso de la semana, anécdotas y mucho más ;) ⚡️CADA DOMINGO UN NUEVO EPISODIO DEL PODCAST (disponible en Ivoox, Spotify, Apple Podcast) donde charlamos tranquilamente sobre anécdotas, comentamos noticias, os planteamos dilemas morales y compartimos recomendaciones.

Animal Rising has made global headlines with its risk-taking actions including: sending hundreds of protesters to disrupt England's most famous horse race, rescuing lambs from the estate of the King of England and occupying massive dairy factories. Their mission is to reinvent humanity's broken relationship with animals by getting people to understand that it is morally wrong to use, abuse and kill animals for food, fashion, entertainment or experimentation. Often wearing matching pink sweatshirts, Animal Rising members risk arrest and even their lives to confront, in a nonviolent way, people who are participating in animal exploitation.

Rose Patterson is part of Animal Rising, which used to be called Animal Rebellion, that is until April. And since April, which is only a few months ago, they've exploded - they are everywhere.  They have disrupted horse races and greyhound races, they've broken into labs, they've stolen beagles, they've stolen King Charles's lambs. And they've received a huge amount of press because of their actions. Much of that press has been TV time, which means that conversations about how we treat animals, not just in the ways mentioned above but in our food system, are taking place all over the media in the UK. Animal Rising is changing the game for what activism looks like. Rose and I met a couple of weeks ago in London, where she lives.
