Animal Ag is DESPERATE: Regenerative Agriculture Claims & Teen Slaughterhouse Tours | Rising Anxieties

In this episode of Rising Anxieties, Mariann Sullivan exposes how the animal agriculture industry is desperately attempting to rebrand itself while facing mounting environmental and ethical challenges.

This episode explores:

• How factory farming is co-opting “regenerative agriculture” as their newest meaningless buzzword to greenwash industrial practices
• The meat industry’s shocking new strategy to recruit teenagers aged 16-18 by giving them “hands-on experience” in slaughterhouses. Seriously?
• How The New York Times misrepresents animal testing by using euphemistic language like “sacrifice” and “euthanasia”
• New research from Denmark proving we can create sustainable food systems by reducing poultry and pork consumption while ELIMINATING beef entirely
