THIS AWARENESS PROJECT IS AN ATTEMPT TO CONNECT THE DOTS THAT NEED TO BE CONNECTED IN ORDER TO REALIZE HOW OUR INDUSTRIALIZED FOOD SYSTEMS, FACTORY FARMING IN PARTICULAR, ARE DESTROYING EVERYTHING THAT WE VALUE AND THAT IS ESSENTIAL FOR THE WELL-BEING OF OUR BODIES AND FOR PLANETARY HEALTH.
WHEN WE THINK ABOUT THE PROBLEMS THAT THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE ENCOUNTER TODAY, WE RARELY CONNECT THEM TO FOOD-RELATED ISSUES, AND WE ARE HARDLY INFORMED THAT MANY OF THESE PROBLEMATIC CHAINS LEADING TO SUFFERING ARE ROOTED IN THE FOOD SYSTEM.
EXPLORE HOW FOOD SYSTEMS SHAPE OUR WORLDVIEWS AND CONTRIBUTE TO MANY OF THE PROBLEMS WE FACE TODAY.
THESE ARE PROBLEMS THAT PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES, ANIMALS AND OTHER LIFE FORMS, AS WELL AS ECOSYSTEMS AT LARGE, ENCOUNTER AS A RESULT OF INDUSTRIAL ANIMAL AGRICULTURE.
