All God's Critters Got A Place In The Choir

The animal rights movement has come a long way since the 1970s when

philosopher Peter Singer kicked off a wave of activism with his book

" Animal Liberation " . Just this year, Germany became the first country to

include animal protection it its constitution and initiatives against

animal cruelty are popping all over ballots in the US. But is it more

productive to think in terms of " animal rights " or of " animal welfare " ? We

hear from Singer and from Michael Pollan, who recently published a response

to Singer. Also, Mombasa, endangered pearl of the Indian Ocean, and the

inner machinations of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
