FW: What is the true cost of cheap meat?

[Vijai Singhal]

Dear friends,

Please find time to watch this excellent video. It is very informative whether or not you support meat eating. It will make you think about your diet, about your health, about ethics of treatment of animals and other related economics and social issues and climate change etc. You will find time well spent I can guarantee you that.

Kind regards,

Vijai Singhal

Dear Vijai, Have you ever thought that the sticker price of cheap meat doesn’t match its actual cost? Who is paying the real price for cheaper meat at the checkout? Voiceless is proud to announce the launch of a new project which investigates these questions and their greater impact. In collaboration with EyeLevel – a new initiative aimed at promoting thought leadership – we’re challenging Australians to think about the intensive farming practices which make cheap meat possible. Voiceless has brought together a roster of leading Australians to answer key questions about the ethical, environmental and health costs of cheap meat. With an introduction from former High Court judge the Hon Michael Kirby AC CMG, the panel also comprises: Former Treasury Secretary Dr Ken Henry AC Leader of the Opposition in the NSW Legislative Council, the Hon Luke Foley MLC Author and academic Dr Deidre Wicks Renowned international animal lawyer Antoine Goetschel Director of Feather and Bone Laura Dalrymple The Eyelevel format gives panellists the opportunity to speak on a number of thought-provoking topics, compiling their responses into an interactive video platform, which is now available for you to watch here.   This is a significant opportunity to raise public awareness about factory farming and the conditions that animals raised for food are forced to endure throughout their short lives.  Please share this fantastic resource with your friends and family on Facebook and Twitter, post it on your blog or forward this email to your colleagues. Start a conversation today to help end factory farming tomorrow.   Thanks for your continued support,  Dana Campbell Chief Executive Officer    Find us on Facebook Voiceless Limited ABN 49 108 494 631  Follow us on Twitter To unsubscribe please click here.    Watch us on YouTube   Make a donation to Voiceless Is this email not displaying correctly? View it in a web browser.

Thanks Vijai ji, this is interesting and well put together ... It is helpful to share to educate the broader society on these important issues.

I appreciated it, particularly the broad range of responses.

Regards, Leah
