The Devastating Consequences of Animal Agriculture on Earth
We all need to see this video. We only have one home, let’s protect it!
This video gives a bleak picture of how animal husbandry destroys the environment and negatively affects life on Earth.
Almost a third of the earth is used for animal husbandry.
The Amazon Rainforest is destroyed for meat production.
Wild animals lose their home, many die out.
In animal husbandry 20-30% of the total fresh water is consumed.
Fertile land turns into desert.
Animal waste pollutes the precious water and the environment.
18% of greenhouse gas emissions come from animal husbandry.
Industrial fisheries are overfishing the oceans!
We only have one planet and we all have a responsibility to protect it!

Earlier and today, living beings, especially pigs, monkeys, goats, rabbits, dogs, mice and rats are used for war research. Pigs were used as living targets, especially in Eastern and Northern Europe, to test the accuracy of newly developed machine guns.
Since humans exist, there are also wars. Ever since humans exist, war devices of all kinds have been tested on animals before being used in humans. From the atomic bomb to the rapid-fire rifle, from pests to nerve gas – everything is tested on defenseless animals. The experiments in the field of armaments research are subject to the strictest secrecy, which is why the sparse information that reaches the public is only the tip of the iceberg. Examples from the past:
The US Army abused monkeys by being irradiated with neutrons and subjected to electric shocks. The radioactively contaminated primates had to walk in treadmills until they died of exhaustion (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 20.2.84).
Norwegian military used pigs as living targets. Soldiers fired rifles and pistols at the hind legs and bellies of the suspended animals (picture on Sunday, March 18, 1984).
In Sweden soldiers shot at anesthetized pigs to test a “human” machine gun and inflicted serious abdominal injuries. After awakening from anesthesia, her suffering and dying were observed (Stern, 35/78).
In the German Army shot at dogs and in vest vests minced pigs. Many of the animals continued to suffer for days before being wounded or killed.
Also in the German Army guinea pigs were exposed to gun thunder. The noise disrupted the animals’ eardrums and tissue in the lung area (Spiegel 13/84).
I am Oliver Stone.Every year, the US military shoots and stigmatizes more than ten thousand living animals in cruel “trauma training”exercises in situations that do not resemble real battlefield conditions and do not help soldiers at all to rescue. Undercover shots show these top secret exercises in Virginia Beach.
….There are perfect human imitations today (trauma man) that bleed and are already in use in many military nations!
My comment:Most of brain research is commissioned by the military. Under the guise of science, sick people can fully live out their sadistic, animal-tormenting fantasies. The whole thing is also often financed with our taxpayers’ money.
There is hardly a country in which not weapons of all kinds are tested until the high-tech rocket on animals. Living targets, exposed to radioactive radiation or the administration of viruse, the misuse of animals for military purposes is the most perfidious, cruel thing imaginable.
The Animal Protection Act prohibits animal testing for the testing of weapons, ammunition and related equipment. But under the guise of alleged protection of soldiers such torturous animal experiments take place and the ban will be avoided.

The mass grave “Al Shuwaikh”had only negative feelings and thoughts generated lately.
But let’s not forget that there were also a few, who actively tried to prevent it, and one of them was the Dutch MEP Anja Hazenkamp.
Hazekamp visited the Port of Midia, where she observed horrendous animal abuse during loading.
“Sheep were kicked, beaten and attacked with electric poles, but Romanian authorities refused to intervene. Europe can no longer look the other way. Animal welfare rules are being violated systematically. The Commission must act now”.
Thanks Anja Hazenkamp in the name of the animals!!
For this crime, are responsible the hypocritical EU Commissioners, whose work ethic on paper ends.
So we ask ourselves: why can not such EU Commissioners be replaced?
We don`t know how they could get such a responsible post, they got it without our voice, what we know is that they don`t care for the welfare of the animals, but they benefit from the suffering of the animals.
We did not forget the mass grave “Al Shuwaikh”!
And we will do our utmost to ensure that those responsible for this mass grave receive a just punishment.

Brutal sterilization of city pigeons in Brussels without anesthesia!
In the capital of the EU Parliament, in the middle of the 21st century animals are sterilized without anesthesia, reminiscent of middle age!
How ice cold and dulled must be “veterinarians” to do something unbelievably painful, even cruel to these peaceful, absolutely defenseless animals! This is also practiced, as can be seen, completely without empathy and routinely coarse, in rows, as if it were any objects.
And without any disinfection, with rubber rings brutally and painfully fixed on feet and wings!
It’s unbelievable how much rudeness is drilled and poked around in the deep, open wounds of non-anesthetized animals, and fallopian tubes or whatever are simply pulled out and torn.
The fact that the feathers have already been plucked out in the required place before is the most “harmless” part of this clearly conscious, disgusting animal cruelty in this incredibly painful procedure, which is carried out with the utmost ignorance!
HOW is it possible that such a thing is obviously allowed in Belgium without any contradiction?
WHY will not something be done against the pigeon breeders, who are the perpetrators of the problems, who also demand torments and abnormal “sporting” excellence from the animals?
WHAT happens to the tortured pigeons and their deep open wounds afterwards? It is polluted and is operated under bad hygienic conditions, so that subsequent infections in wounds can not be excluded. In these, the pigeons on the street can die painfully. Are the severely abused and suffering animals simply left to their fate ???
Do they get anything against the murderous pain, at least after this martyrdom?
Probably not even that! In Brussels, as the video shows, there seems to be no animal welfare and animal welfare ethics.
That must not remain uncommented. That can not be without reaction!
Let’s call for an immediate stop to this madness!
We have made a simple but meaningful letter that anyone can send to these addresses:
we too are appalled that such a brutal anesthetic sterilization on the city pigeons in Brussels is allowed!
In the capital of the European Parliament, in the 21st century, no medieval practices on animals should be used.
How is something like this possible?! Who is responsible for such barbarism?
Please ensure that the stun-free sterilization of city doves is stopped immediately and that more humane, civilized, contemporary alternatives are used!
My comment: Apparently in Brussels a clear animal cruelty and even in absolutely legal form is operated!
Thousand of pigeons are bred in farms for racing. Therefore, they are regularly “trained” for the race:
The animals are brought away from their pigeon house for over a thousand kilometers.
Because pigeons have an extremely strong sense of family and are extremely loyal animals, they are desperate to find their way back to their family as soon as possible.
In the pigeons races 50% of the pigeons do not come back. These losses are always factored in for profit!
Those who do not come back to the dovecote die painfully from dehydration, exhaustion, or injury, or are stranded in cities where they lead a sorrowful life and are sterilized by Mengeles without anesthesia.
And all this happens legally, and with the blessing of the Brussel-EU!
Further proof that Brussels is slowly becoming a horror cabinet for animals.

Surely we all have already noticed by the media that these days again and again animal transporters are stopped by the police and depict dramatic scenes.
Image: tierschutzbüro e.V
Last Friday, for example, the motorway police in the Nuremberg area (Germany) stopped an overheated animal transport with about 800 piglets. The officers had been alerted by a committed animal rights activist from the Nuremberg area.
He observed while driving on the A3 that many of the animals gasped and were in poor general condition.
Locally, the officials found that the temperature in the transporter was about 41degrees Celsius. The outside temperature during the day was 38 degrees Celsius!
The networked animal rights activist observed and told us that the drinking system was only turned on, when the driver of the transporter was asked to do so. Already after a short time this was already empty. It did not really work.
“There’s a bit of criminal energy behind it” the police spokesman said. “At such temperatures, it’s like a death sentence.”
Image: tierschutzbüro e.V
The truck was on its way from the Netherlands to Croatia – a distance of over 1000 kilometers.
Only in Austria a new stop was planned!!
Due to the prevailing high temperature and acute water shortage many of the animals were found in a very dehydrated state, at least two piglets were already dead.
Image: tierschutzbüro e.V
After the animals were supplied with water and food in the premises of the slaughterhouse, the responsible VET doctor unfortunately released the truck and was allowed to resume its journey to Croatia.
Some of the piglets were previously found in such poor condition that they were killed on the spot.
My comment: (From the official information center for agriculture, Germany):
“Objective consideration of long-distance transport from Germany shows that German companies are complying with existing regulations.” (see above the case Nuremberg)
The protection of the animals is the focus of transport. After inspections in several EU Member States, the EU Commission emphasized that the additional transnational procedures for official animal welfare controls in Germany are excellent (see also above).
In this country, each long-distance transport in non-EU countries is monitored and checked by veterinary officials (as the vans wait for days at the Bulgarian-Turkish border crossing Kapıkule, at 40 degrees Celsius heat.)
We know very well that from the European ports European law is systematically broken, from here on every possibility of control ends.
In February 2017, two years ago, the public was shocked by the fall of a ship that sailed from a Croatian port to Alexandria in Egypt for six days. Three pregnant cows died already in the first four days. In the end, the number of dead animals increased to nine.
But according to EU law it is forbidden to transport pregnant animals!
In addition, the export of live slaughter and breeding animals is booming. Germany alone exported animals worth € 1.34 billion in 2017, almost eight percent more than in the previous year.
France, the Netherlands, Hungary and Germany are high on the list of EU suppliers. According to the Statistical Office of the EU, Turkey, Lebanon and Egypt are among the major importers.
One wonders, for how stupid keeps us the EU – Kommission and its business partners, the animal transport mafia!

We tried, and we believed until the last day that we would make it at least to a fair punishment.
When 70,000 beings are dragged to Kuwait for 18 days under murderous temperatures with minimal livelihoods, the question arises automatically:
who bears the responsibility for this crime? what could be a just punishment?
We accompanied this coffin from the satellite every day, and that gave us the feeling of being with the sufferer.
In their last, agonizing days.
We did not have the right to file a complaint against the Romanian Ministry or the transport company as it should.
We only do an investigative work on the rights of animals from this blog, we are not an association nor an organization.
This would be justified by other organizations or Eurogroups, who have very quickly lost the interest in this death procession of the 70,000 sheep to Kuwait.
We were the first to report on Romania’s violation oagains the EU Animal Transport Act.
And leave this vile battlefield last.
Sad as never before.
For two reasons.
Because we could not stop this death journey from the beginning, in the port of Midia.
This was the fate of animals already sealed.
And on the other hand, because we could not count on the help of any organization, Eurogroup or association; all these had given up these 70.000 beings, the case “Midia” made for the media and animal rights sides only on the first day a headline, for all others was the transport to Kuwait a hopeless case, just like any animal transport.
Nobody can imagine what the 70,000 sheep on a sea coffin under the Kuwaiti flag has suffered.
And while we believe that our day-to-day experiences of suffering animals harden us, in this particular case we reach the limit of emotional explosion, hate those who caused the tragedy, and those who ignored this tragedy .
At the latest since the case of “Midia” we know that the EU is not there for the animals, but for those who do business with animals.
But we have learned something else, too:
Those who fight alone in animal welfare, has no chance to achieve even minimal benefit for the animals.
The fight against corrupt politicians and the criminal animal industry is a collective struggle.
So we can call the tragedy of “Midia” a collective failure!

At theBeyond Meat Burgernothing is ever part of a cow. It looks like meat, tastes (more or less) like meat, but is not made of meat. But from pea proteins, potato starch, coconut oil and other ingredients, all have one thing in common: they are not of animal origin. The bloody look is helped by beetroot.
Ironically, in America, the stronghold of the barbecue culture, the meat substitute Burger has begun a triumphal procession.
It is served not only in the 400 branches of TGI Fridays between Alabama and Wisconsin. For a few days now, the Dunkin ‘breakfast chain, which has now removed the donuts from its name, sells Manhattan sausage sandwiches without meat. And in the refrigerated shelves of the Whole Foods eco-chain, there is also minced meat that was not produced in the slaughterhouse.
Beyond Meat founder, Ethan Brown
The company seems unstoppable, according to the Beyond Meat founder and CEO Ethan Brown, everything is going great:
Again, the company had to correct its sales expectations for 2019 upwards. Compared to the previous year, revenues are now expected to increase by 170 percent to $ 240 million.
Just since the IPO, the global number of outlets has increased by over 20,000, Brownreported. The concern voiced by analysts that Beyond Meat may not be able to keep up with production sounds like a luxury issue.
“Fake Meat Will Save Us,” a New York Times commentator shouted to his readers: “Industrial agriculture is the coal industry of food production” – that is, a dying industry. Not only does the production of a single beef burger devour two and a half thousand liters of water. Unhealthy food is more lethal “than unprotected sex, alcohol, drugs and nicotine consumption together”.
Many farmers in the US do not like it. They urge the legislator to prohibit the new competition from using the word meat for their goods. So far without success!
My comment: In the past, vegetarian diet was more of an intellectual edge. Soon meat eating is only for the decadent elite as slavery used to be.
A hopeful product that seriously alleviates the suffering of animals and effectively helps to save the environment.
The Beyond Meat Company understands marketing, we have to recognize it.
A brilliant idea in skillful hands just so it can work.
And it works.
