It was 2002 in Seattle, and a very good friend gave me the first “free range” eggs I ever had in my fridge. They were from her family’s very small farm, where they kept many dogs, cats, a donkey and some chickens. The chickens were not separated by male/female and the eggs had to be [...]

If someone would be kind enough as to send me a link to a section in the Greenpeace site, offering real information about how we can help save our planet, I’d be most delighted to post it here. I just don’t think it needs to be so hard to find.

How much of an animal rights organization’s budget should go on saving dogs and cats during a crisis when this money could have been spent on education, teaching children and adults how to treat animals in the first place. The catch, in my opinion, is that sometimes, help must come immediately. For example: the attacks [...]

Maybe, what farm animals need is respect. Without the need to be “sweet” or “lovable”, but simply because they are creatures who feel pain, fear and love.
