Can We Take the Factory Out of the Farm?

How are factory farms affecting the economy and the environment? On the next Your Call, we continue our Agenda for a New Economy series with David Kirby, author of the new book, Animal Factory. He digs into the world of industrial livestock and concludes that it's threatening human health and our environment. So what will it take to say no to feed lots and factory farms and support a sustainable alternative? Join us live at 11 or email feedback@yourcallradio.org. What are the costs for us and the animals? It's Your Call with me, Rose Aguilar, and you.

Guest:
David Kirby, investigative journalist and author of Animal Factory: The Looming Threat of Industrial Pig, Dairy, and Poultry Farms to Humans and the Environment.
