Why an anti-speciesist revolution?

It would be pointless to try to set out on this website the full range of serious, contemporary consequences caused by animal farming and exploitation for humanity’s future. We refer you to the numerous scientific reports demonstrating the well-established links¹ between animal exploitation and:

• Public health and zoonotic diseases²
• Climate change³
• Pollution and the massive destruction of terrestrial and marine ecosystems, biotopes and biocenoses⁴
• The loss of terrestrial and marine biodiversity⁵
• The waste and pollution of terrestrial and marine natural resources⁶
• The massive waste of public money⁷
• Deforestation⁸
• Etc.

Animal exploitation is furthermore responsible for the killing of around 90 billion land animals and several thousand billion marine animals every year⁹.

It is now established that humanity could, and should, very largely do without animal exploitation in order to preserve liveable conditions on Earth.

Today, we are entirely capable of producing tasty food products without having to exploit or kill non-human animals. The scientific knowledge and technical know-how already exist. All that is missing is public policy and investors.

For a fuller overview of the harmful consequences of animal exploitation, we refer you to the website of the ASBL Ligue Internationale Antispéciste.
