About the Book

Read this mobilizing force for animal advocacy: a roadmap for those who want to help dismantle factory farming in America.

America is undergoing an unheralded moral revolution concerning our industrial treatment of farm animals. In less than a decade, farm animal compassion has moved from a niche cause into the pantheon of established social movements. For the first time, many Americans are answering the question of what to do with their time on Earth by dedicating their lives to helping farm animals. Spurred by the innovative ethics of effective altruism, a constellation of pioneering activists, capitalists, farmers, lawyers, philanthropists, politicians, professors, and scientists are using different tactics with the same motives to address one of the world's most pressing and tractable problems.

This is not another book about farm animal death and suffering - this book is about life and hope. What was once the province of itinerant activists has opened so it is now possible for you—yes, you—to dedicate your life's work to helping end the world's largest source of suffering. Here you will learn the compelling stories of this revolution from midwestern slaughterhouses to the halls of Capitol Hill to Ivy League universities and Silicon Valley laboratories.

This book marks a pivotal point where scholarship meets societal change, offering a deep dive into the complexities of factory farming and presenting pathways for meaningful action for those committed to the causes of effective altruism, animal rights and more-than-human welfare.
