The Economic, Social and Environmental Impacts of Industrialized Animal Agriculture

The Economics Equality and Environment Club invites you to join us for a talk about the Economic, Social and Environmental Impacts of Industrialized Animal Agriculture.

This interactive presentation will cover the economic, social, and environmental impacts of industrialized animal agriculture. We will explore how factory farming affects farmed animal welfare, financial allocation with modern food systems, and food accessibility for oppressed populations.

From economics to social justice to public health to sustainability, factory farming is one of the most serious issues facing the planet. By educating and empowering various audiences about the realities of factory farming, the New Roots Institute works to build both a consumer base for a sustainable, compassionate food system and an informed citizenry that supports cultural and legislative change.

Join us in the Murray Building, Room M-313
