Animals in the food chain

Mahatma Gandhi was reported to say that “You can judge the morality of a nation by the way the society treats its animals.”

How are we doing in the 21st century? In this debate, organised by the University of Bristol, academics and campaigners will consider whether the livestock industry, retailers and Government are delivering the animal welfare standards that consumers want or expect.

Speakers Professor David Main, School of Veterinary Sciences; Dr Angela Wright, Compassion in World Farming; Helen Browning, Soil Association.
