Another study has found what should not be shocking by now: a diet built around whole plant foods is associated with better health outcomes. This time, the outcome is Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. https://www.herbivore.club/p/whole-plant-foods-linked-to-lower

Britain knows fireworks terrify animals. The proposed answer? Make the explosions a bit quieter. Horses are injured, wildlife flee and lives are lost. https://open.substack.com/pub/herbivoreclub/p/fireworks-are-killing-animals-here

When birds grow more slowly or live longer before slaughter, they consume more feed. More crops must be grown. More land is used. More water. More waste. More transport. More inputs. https://open.substack.com/pub/herbivoreclub/p/norway-bans-frankenchickens

Fireworks are not just pretty lights in the sky. For some animals, they are terror raining down from a species that still struggles to understand that not everything pleasurable to humans is morally neutral. https://www.herbivore.club/p/fireworks-are-not-harmless-fun-when

You can oppose exploitation, defend bodily autonomy and condemn oppression, then pay for animals to be bred, separated from their young and slaughtered. What makes those victims the exception to your principles? https://open.substack.com/pub/herbivoreclub/p/when-is-it-animals-turn-for-justice

Pigs are not bacon waiting to happen. They are animals with lives of their own. The question is not whether bacon contains nitrites. The question is why anyone thinks a pig should be made into bacon at all. https://www.herbivore.club/p/bacon-begins-with-someone

It's our 10 year anniversary. We've posted about animal rights over 275,000 times over 9 social media platforms, made headlines 21 times, and written over 400 articles, over the last decade because of one simple truth: No being is so important that they can usurp the rights of another. I hope you're with us ✊

Meat-eaters were twice as likely to sign a petition for one named calf than for a group of unnamed calves. The threat was the same. The difference was a face and a name. How many animals have to introduce themselves before we stop killing them? https://open.substack.com/pub/herbivoreclub/p/lucky-enough-to-live

Tasmania's salmon farms used more than 5 tonnes of antibiotics while disease killed 9,000 tonnes of fish. Now they're asking to use a restricted drug again. When mass deaths become business as usual, why is farming them still the plan? https://open.substack.com/pub/herbivoreclub/p/tasmanias-salmon-farms-have-a-drug

Feminists who support dairy: paying for female individuals to be forcibly impregnated and exploited. Consent and bodily autonomy suddenly doesn’t matter if they don't look or think like you?

Animals are not commodities, products or resources, they are individuals with their own personalities, preferences and experiences. Treat them with the respect and dignity they deserve. Go vegan.

Australia plans to ban gillnets on the Great Barrier Reef after thousands of threatened animals were caught. Fishers want more time. But what about the barramundi the nets are meant to kill?
