Slaughterhouses!
@brusselstimes.com
The term ‘Humane slaughter‘ reassures us that animals are treated with compassion when their lives are ended
But for pigs & chickens the notion of humane slaughter serves to hide a world of pain’

150 yr old bendy elm still standing against all odds crowned UK tree of the year
In a world where a dead tree is seemingly worth more than a live one, it’s absolutely right we celebrate but also care, for all our wonderful trees, iconic or not

As Netflix documentary My Octopus Teacher showed, these marvellous creatures are too intelligent to be factory farmed 🐙
The mind of an octopus can be compared to a three-year-old child’s
Are we really going to trap them in barren tanks of water while they await slaughter for food?
#WorldOctopusDay

Octopuses are remarkable (8 legs, 3 hearts, blue-green blood & much more) & proposed farming of them is completely at odds with everything we understand about the species & what we know to be morally right.
We must END.IT

There are far too many sentient beings capable of feeling fear, frustration and pain, brutally abused and cruelly treated in this world.
When we stand up for the vulnerable, whether human or non-human, we become better versions of ourselves

The animals we underestimate @theguardian.com
“What has disappointed me is the reluctance of people to boycott products from the greatest moral atrocity of our day
Yes, that’s factory farming, which inflicts suffering on around 200 billion animals” Peter Singer

On #WorldAnimalDay 2026 please remember the #Factoryfarmed animals that are out of sight and out of mind
They are sentient, feeling creatures that give their lives for our food & deserve a life worth living & our love and respect
No animal should ever be so cruelly confined or caged
@ciwf.org.uk

it’s #WorldAnimalDay2026
A day to recognise & celebrate the profound beauty, grace & spirit of animals, highlighting how they enrich our lives & the natural world
But it is not enough to love animals, we are all connected & we must be proactive in standing up for them, protecting & caring for them

Today is #WorldFarmedAnimalsDay.

In this message, our Global CEO @philip-ciwf.bsky.social asks a simple question: do we love animals enough to let them be free to be themselves and enjoy their lives? 💚

WHAT ANIMALS TEACH US ABOUT OURSELVES
We celebrate the comfort a dog affords, yet often ignore the suffering experienced by the animals who end up on our plates
Our growing understanding of animals should challenge us to close that moral gap

This was supposed to be a beautiful adventure that brought dogs to the life they dreamed of. Then we were going to go home, carry on with our lives and try to build a better one
