“Regenerative Grazing” & “Low-Carbon Chickens”: How We Can Fight the Greenwashing of Animal Agriculture
Even though science tells us unequivocally that animal agriculture is a leading cause of the climate crisis, the meat, dairy, and egg industries have flooded the environmental conversation with lies and misdirections to deflect from this reality.
This panel will help us understand how the greenwashing of animal ag has taken hold, and how to most effectively dismantle the myths and put heat on this destructive practice of raising animals for food.
Panelists:
– Adria Vasil – environmental journalist and managing editor, Corporate Knights magazine
– Nicholas Carter – ecologist, science writer, and co-founder of www.PlantBasedData.org
– Jason Hannan – associate professor, Department of Rhetoric, Writing & Communications at the University of Winnipeg, author of Meatsplaining: The Animal Agriculture Industry and the Rhetoric of Denial
