Everyone's complaining about chicken breast pricing at Loblaws. Here's a radical idea: let's get farmers to transition to plant-based food farming, with the govt's help, instead of losing money on animal agriculture. It's a deadly industry, for all.

Tiny urban forests can help #rewild urban settings and help fight #climatechange. The brainchild of the Japanese botanist Miyawaki is taking his idea global. We have so many solutions. Let's stop the delays and implement them. #ActOnClimate #climate #forests #nature

We (Faunalytics) have a new report that dives into animal ag subsidies & how advocates can reduce their harmful impact. I interviewed 13 organizations (animal & environmental) that are working to reform farm subsidies & I asked them about what works best.🧵1/7

Important petition to sign. An example of 🇨🇦 govt putting in place a ban and not enforcing it. We must ask the gov to keep their promises to the tax payers, the voters. Just like the Canada Food Guide that is not being followed. It's consistent backpedaling. Ban Horse Slaughter

If we're so upset about farmers dumping cow's milk down the drain, why not support their switch to growing foods that are actually in demand, and better for the 🌎? From The Globe and Mail : "Canadians’ consumption of dairy milk has been steadily declining for more than a decade."

Disinfo from the meat lobby says plant-based foods have too many ingredients. But industrial meat contains the really devastating ingredients — copious global land, scarce water, N fertilizers, antibiotics…. eleanorboyle.com/blog/the-ingre…

Recent survey finds that 78% of US consumers want the government to subsidize food for direct human consumption over feed for farmed animals. According to Farm Action, ~30% of US farm subsidies go to produce feed crops for dairy, eggs & meat thehill.com/policy/equilib…

If the price of eggs are skyrocketing in 🇨🇦, why don't we opt for plant-based options, which the gov should be subsidizing and making available to all?

Nothing says you 💕 someone as much as supporting efforts to stop the detrimental effects of animal agriculture on our world - the planet we live on & lives we live. Help us build a new CRFP website will feature our community's work & future research on CAD animal ag subsidies.

#CdnAg is: - Destroying our 🌎 thru excessive agricultural land use to feed animals - Introducing the next outbreak, thru water & soil pollution - Creating the idea that meat is healthy - science saying it's linked to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, etc. #ShiftToPlantBased

& we'll add to this even more: farmers are ALREADY using land to grow food to feed animals. All we have to do is make the switch. We KNOW demand for animal products are down. Let's take action and #shifttoplantbased now, before it's too late. Before farmers shut down.
