Description

<p>We&apos;ve heard four distinct visions for the future of meat and livestock. But realistically, won&apos;t they all play a role? As we wrap up the series in the next two episodes, we’re going to review what’s in conflict between the four futures and how parts of them might co-exist.</p><p>In this episode we ask three experts to consider different arguments presented by the four futures as they relate to health, biodiversity and animal ethics. We ask a professor of diet and population health if it’s better to eat some, a lot, or no meat; we ask a population biologist about how the different futures would help biodiversity to recover; and we ask an animal ethicist about the morality of eating animals and to interrogate the ethical cases put forward by the four futures.<br/><br/>--<br/><br/>Visit the episode page with more resources: <a href='https://tabledebates.org/meat/episode7'>https://tabledebates.org/meat/episode7</a><br/><br/>Project webpage: <a href='https://tabledebates.org/meat'>https://tabledebates.org/meat</a><br/><br/>Take the values-based quiz: <a href='https://tabledebates.org/meat/quiz'>https://tabledebates.org/meat/quiz</a><br/><br/>Music by Blue dot Sessions and Epidemic sound.</p>
