Animal Production and the New Social Ethic for Animals

[Guest guest]

Hello,

 

I'm passing this on particularly to Anthony but thought I'd post it for

everybody because it's very interesting.

 

It is a presented paper from the Food Animal Well-Being 1993 Conference

Proceedings and Deliberations, USDA and Purdue University, Office of

Agricultural Research Programs, West Lafayette, Indiana

 

entitled " Animal Production and the New Social Ethic for Animals "

by Bernard E. Rollin - Professor and Director of Bioethical Planning, Department

of Philosophy, Colorado State University, and author of " The Unheeded Cry:

Animla Consciousness, Animal Pain, and Science "

 

Rollin discusses issues such as animal agriculture then vs. now, what he calls

the new " consensus social ethic about animals " that's happening in society,

animal welfare vs. animal rights, what to do, and much more.

 

Check it out.
