  6. The World Bank Must Stop Ploughing Funds into Factory Farming

    "We found that 16 leading international banks together invested $3.33 billion in #AnimalAgriculture in 2023. Over two thirds (68 % or $2.27 bn) was channeled to factory farming – projects that support concentrated or intensive animal operations. Just 2 % ($77 million) went towards non-industrial animal farming projects, which invest in small-scale agriculture and more sustainable practices."

  11. It seems large herbivores may be important for some ecosystems (and, to be clear, #CAFO are not a desirable ecosystem, they are an abomination)

  21. "In the last week we have learned that #H5N1 is widespread in ruminant animals across the US. First goat kids were found with unusual neurological symptoms that turned out to be H5N1 at a farm in Western Minnesota. Then widespread unusual symptoms in dairy cows in Texas and Kansas turned out to be avian influenza as well.
    Moreover, in the dairy cows this is showing up in large scale operations in places where there are a LOT of cattle feedlots. And cows in #CAFO feedlots are famously sick already - they are fed #antibiotics basically to keep them from dropping dead, but cows in confinement agriculture headed to slaughter are generally unhealthy, which ups the chance that the virus will mutate to spread cow to cow.
    In order to prevent that, the solution will almost certainly be the same one that has been used in confinement poultry operations - mass slaughter. So at an absolute minimum, we are looking a substantial increase in the price of beef, goat, probably lamb & milk." ko-fi.com/post/Bird-Flu-Round-
