Topic archive: Animal Welfare

Animal welfare appears to be both highly tractable and relatively neglected, especially when it comes to animals farmed for food like cows, pigs, chickens, and sheep.

Tens of billions of land animals and perhaps trillions of marine animals are killed for food every year, but advances in alternative proteins, and promising animal welfare campaigns and legislation, mean that there might be unusually good opportunities to have a positive impact working in this area.
