Compassion in World Farming applauds supermarket chain Shopright on providing a market for the 'Amazing Yellow Yolk Eggs' of Ugandan farmer Mrs Joy Lwanga. See:http://www.bidnetwork.org Note to Shoprite: Please help a South African farmer achieve a similar success with naturally produced eggs. |
On World Water Day (22nd March) and on every other day, for that matter, we need to remember that meat-eating carries a giant water footprint.
Did you know? It takes 13 million litres of water to raise and convert one cow or ox into meat!
Did you know? To produce one portion of beef (250g) requires the same amount of drinking water that one person needs (at one litre a day) for 34 years of life!
