Five: Lewis Bollard on factory farming
Manage episode 305878462 series 3000843
Every year tens of billions of animals are raised in terrible conditions in factory farms before being killed for human consumption. Despite the enormous scale of suffering this causes, the issue is largely neglected, with only about $50 million dollars spent each year tackling the problem globally.
Since 2015, Lewis Bollard has led Open Philanthropy’s program on farmed animal welfare, where he has conducted extensive research into the best ways to eliminate animal suffering in farms as soon as possible.
He might be the single best person in the world to introduce the problem of factory farming.
