This week Jay goes behind the scenes of Factory Farming and how they impact our health, environment and most importantly animal welfare. Over 95% percent of farm animals are raised in factory farms and more than 150 billion animals are killed each year for food. 94% of Americans agree that animals raised for food deserve to live free from abuse and cruelty. Yet the majority of the nearly 10 billion farm animals raised each year in the U.S. suffer in conditions that consumers would not accept if they could see them. Michele Merkel from Food & Water Watch discusses what we can do from a legal standpoint to change the narrative of factory farming and its abuses.
