NEW REPORT: Atlantic bluefin tuna farming is cruel and threatens marine life, food security & wild populations. We witnessed the cruelty firsthand at a tuna farm. Wild animals built to cross oceans should not be trapped in cages. Help us #KeepThemWild 🐟🌊✍️ bit.ly/4qA6J4v

🚨 Factory farming is the #1 cause of food waste globally. 766m tonnes of human edible grain are fed to animals annually - more than food wasted by households (631m), food service (290m), or retail (131m). It’s time to choose #FoodNotFeed. ✍️ Sign the ECI: bit.ly/4pKYW1X

Recently, our China team went to Egg Culture Festival - an event designed to help consumers learn more about eggs & farmed animal welfare. Through interactive public engagement activities, they helped bring hen welfare & cage-free farming into conversations with consumers.

The EU's Vision 2040 featured low-trophic aquaculture & animal welfare. But it still supports growth in carnivorous fish farming, fails to tackle reliance on wild-caught fish feed, & offers no commitment to welfare legislation for farmed aquatic animals. 🔗ciwf.org/media-and-news/late…

Factory farming is draining our food supply. We’re feeding millions of tonnes of grain to factory farms instead of people & losing most of the calories. If we end factory farming, we could feed an extra 2 billion people every year. Take action this #WorldFoodDay: bit.ly/4pKYW1X

2 weeks ago, we sent @Irish_Ferries a legal notice with @fourpawsint & @Welfarm, raising concerns that EU law is being breached on its ships. Its response is not good enough. The calves on board should be fed - but this basic need is not being met. ✍️Take action action.ciwf.org.uk/page/1723…..

Octopuses sense light with their whole body & taste the world as they touch it. Yet there are few laws to protect them from factory farms. We’re racing to stop this cruel, unsustainable industry in its tracks. ️✍️ Help protect octopuses from farms: bit.ly/471yPwV

Our current food system is feeding factory farms while millions of people go hungry. We're urging the @EU_Commission to move to a more resilient food system that prioritises feeding people – one that is better for animals and the planet. Take action now: bit.ly/4pKYW1X

We took to the streets to test out the public’s knowledge of farmed animals. While fish are some of the most farmed species in the world, they sadly have the least welfare protections. Fish are sentient beings, they can feel pain, fear but also positive emotions. They can solve complex problems and form social connections with one another. 🐟 Like all farmed animals, they should be respected and protected.

The Transformative Power of Animals and Why Our Connection with Animals Matters more than Ever. There are far too many sentient beings capable of feeling fear, frustration and pain, brutally abused and cruelly treated in this world. Many spending their lives in systems designed primarily for efficiency and profit. When we stand up for the vulnerable, whether human or non-human, we become better versions of ourselves. #KindnessMatters #AnimalsMatter @CIWF_Global philiplymbery.com/the-transf…
