And God said, "Behold 1 have given you every plant yielding seed which is upon the face of the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit, you shall have them for food. And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life I have given every green plant for food." And it was so. (Genesis, 1:28-30). There are seme individuals who have taken strong exceptionto the foregoing Biblical injunction. Instances have occurred in whichsmall groups have banded together to convince society of their "new” principles of human morality and justice. To enforce their demands for a re-evaluation of the rights of non-human animals, they have broken into laboratories which conduct either medical or psychological research and have wreaked havoc upon both human beings and animals. They have already destroyed equipment and facilities which cost taxpayers millions of dollars, have disrupted the careers and work of scientific researchers, and in the process have sometimes endangered the lives of animals whose rights they profess to uphold and to protect*. These actions were all taken in the name of animal rights. Proponents of this new Ideology are now increasing in number and strength throughout the 1 2 world. The movement has become a force within the United States. At 2 present there are over 55 national animal welfare/rights organizations • One-third of these organizations have been established since 1980. Prior to this time the majority of groups were founded on the principles of animal welfare. As such, their primary interests were oriented towards providing shelter, care, and treatment for animals. These activities are most commonly associated with groups like Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCAs) and the Humane Society of the United States. However, in the last decade there has been a sudden incresse in the number of animal rights organizations. These new groups aim at providing for the physical well-being of animals, like the animal welfare groups, but they also believe that animals are entitled to the same rights, liberty, and freedom that human beings receive. They hsve been remarkably successful thus far, particularly in the area of administrative law. The general trend In the animal rights movement haB been toward increasing use of terroristic tactics. This is amply demonstrated by the number of university laboratory break-in6 that have occurred in 3 recent years . These actions were taken in the name of animals and ware attempts to uphold the civil rights of animals. Over 18 universities in the United States have been subjected to burglary, vandalism, and the removal of animals from their animal research facilities since 1979. A third of these break-ins were into psychology departments. Various organizations within the animal rights movement have accepted responsibility for these break-ins. But in very few instances have any 3 L of these organizations/individuals been penalized for their actions . These activities of the enimal rights movement are increasingi not only in terns of frequency, but also with respect to financial and enotional costs to the experinenter and univeraity. Researchers

  • Meat Consumption and Potential Reduction for Environmental and Public Health Benefits
    MEAT CONSUMPTION AND POTENTIAL REDUCTION FOR ENVIRONMENTAL AND PUBLIC HEALTH BENEFITS by GARRETT LENTZ A thesis submitted to the University of Otago in partial fulfilment for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Geography June 2019 Abstract The focus of this thesis was to better understand meat consumption and investigate how a shift to more plant-based diets may best be promoted. The various environmental impacts linked to animal agriculture were explored and a movement towards more plant-based diets was found as a solution that could alleviate environmental impacts, along with the added benefit of improving public health and helping to safeguard future food security. Shifting a behaviour that is as prevalent as meat consumption is no easy task however, as high rates of meat intake have become normalised in many developed nations, being influenced not only by the desires of individual actors’, but also structures within society that encourage continued production and consumption. Potential economic, regulatory, and informational measures to encourage meat reduction were explored and after weighing multiple factors, the potential for information provision to shift consumer meat intake held promise. However, before further inquiry into potential information provision measures, it was advisable to first obtain a more thorough understanding of consumers’ meat consumption within the relatively understudied nation of New Zealand. Thus, the first study of the thesis sought to better understand New Zealand consumers’ meat intake through the distribution of a nationwide questionnaire. Awareness of meat’s environmental impacts was determined to be low and the most common motivations for reducing meat were considerations of cost and health.

RSCPA and the criminology of social control Gordon Hughes and Claire Lawson Abstract This paper contributes to a rethinking of animal abuse control and animal welfare protection in criminology, specifically, and in the social sciences more broadly. We do this, first, through a broad mapping of the institutional control complex around animal abuse in contemporary Britain. Second, we focus on the institutional strategies and practices, past and present, of the main agency of animal protection, and the policing thereof, in this society, namely the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA). In looking back to this charity‟s growth since the first decades of the nineteenth century at the time of the birth of modern industrial capitalism and also to its current rationale and practices as a late-modern, corporate organisation, we explore the seeming paradox of a private body taking a lead on the regulation and prosecution of illegalities associated with animal-human relationships.
