We talk a lot on this show and in the Coast Range Association work more broadly, about the invasive plague of global capital into our timberlands, all just about all other aspects of our world.
One of the key frontlines in the fight against that invasion is mega factory farms, and the pacific northwest is a huge land grab target for Big Ag.
I want to say right up top, this episode is not about eating meat or not. No matter where you stand on eating meat, factory farms are an indefensible way to raise animals for all the reasons we’ll get into today, and many more.
Like most issues, when we make it about personal choice and personal responsibility, we let the true culprits off the hook, in this case, the agribusiness giants who control our food systems.
Real progress requires systemic change. That’s why I’m so excited to speak with three representatives of the Stand Up to Factory Farms coalition about their campaigns to change policy, and what we can all do to help. The guests for this show are:
