Making Cages History with Corporate Campaigns

Hens crammed into battery cages, baby cows shivering isolated in veal hutches, and pigs in gestation crates not able to even turn around. These are the most severe forms of confinement of animals on this planet and they're all driven by the food industry.  While passing laws to protect animals and inspiring people to change their eating habits is the ultimate goal, waiting on these slow-moving shifts feels inadequate when billions of beings are suffering in such extreme confinement. That's where corporate cage-free campaigns come in. In this AJA Lunchtime Live, Animal Justice's Corporate Campaigns Manager, PJ Nyman, will fill us in on how pressure campaigns targeting grocery chains—companies that respond quickly to public outcry—can be an effective tool to force the animal agriculture industry to end some of its most abusive practices. We'll also discuss how incremental changes can contribute to the bigger goal of animal liberation.           We'll dive into Animal Justice's cage-free work, our current battle for caged hens, and an ambitious campaign we're about to launch against a major Canadian grocer that has a big role in it for YOU!
