Description

Explore the urgent challenges facing global food systems in The Meat Crisis. As meat and dairy production and consumption enter a period of crisis, this book examines the impact of using 70 billion farm animals for food production every year. It addresses the well-accepted reality that livestock production acts as a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. With the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) predicting a doubling of meat and milk consumption in the first half of the 21st century, the stakes have never been higher. This text looks at the rapid growth in meat demand within developing economies, particularly in Asia, and investigates the implications for the health and wellbeing of both animals and the people consuming larger quantities of animal products. This is an essential read for those studying the social, medical, and legal aspects of food and agriculture.
