This book documents the harmful effects of factory farming in both industrialized and developing countries and explains the range of problems it can cause. From transmission of disease and loss of livestock diversity to hazardous and unsanitary processing methods, it shows clearly why factory farming is an unsafe, inhumane, and ecologically disruptive form of meat production. Also shows how the individual can make a difference by supporting local, organic, or pasture-raised animal products.Nierenberg, Danielle is the author of 'Happier Meals Rethinking the Global Meat Industry.', published 2005 under ISBN 9781878071774 and ISBN 1878071777.
