Welcome Animal Lovers!
This book is the first in an empowering series that gives you the facts you need to make easy life-style choices impacting the lives of animals all over the world. It is a non-judgemental book of information and tips for anyone who wants to make a difference - big or small.
How are our food and drink choices important to the safety and welfare of animals?
The food and drink that is so readily available to us in supermarkets is often there at a cost to the environment and to animals. Feeding an expanding world population becomes more challenging in a changing climate where food and water resources are dwindling.
A trip to the local supermarket, restaurant or market can present a myriad of choices for those of us who wish to shop ethically. Origins of food, fair trade, preservatives, palm oil, packaging, factory farming - all of these have an impact on animals world-wide.
Subsequently the choices are endless and often overwhelming. Free-range, vegetarian, dairy-free, palm-oil free, locally produced, GMOs. The truth is you can’t tick every box, but you can make product selections that will benefit your family, animals and the environment we all live in. And by choosing food that has less packaging and has been produced and transported in a sustainable way, together we can reduce the size of our ecological footprint and help to save animals.
