It is believed that our relationship with dogs started 15 000 years ago when we first started to domesticate the cubs of wolves. Through the ages, we have developed a bond with dogs that is often closer than with any other animal. Yet, they have become victims of human neglect and abuse.

This video examines the plight of dogs in the world today and points to how to change this into a mutually beneficial relationship.

Water Footprint

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!
