How to end factory farming

Factory farming is the greatest moral crisis we ignore, says farm animal welfare champion Lewis Bollard. He exposes the truth behind the "all natural" labels on your groceries and shows how technology and public pressure can uncover the unseen struggle of animals, drive the industry to reform and harness our collective capacity for moral progress.

Factory farming inflicts immense, largely unseen suffering on billions of animals each year, with pigs unable to turn around and male chicks discarded alive. Despite industry efforts to keep these conditions hidden, growing public awareness and technological advances are fueling change. More than 200 billion animals are killed annually, outnumbering every human who has ever lived. Moral progress demands society refuse to tolerate these cruelties and push for real reform.
