  • Assessment of Animal Equality 2015
    Additional information - for Animal Charity Evaluators - Assessment of Animal Equality 2015 Due date: October 7th 2015 1 1. What are your goals? Your vision? Your mission? (Update after strategic lines 2015) Vision Animal Equality works to create a world without animal suffering. Mission Animal Equality is a voice for farmed animals all over the world inspiring society and companies to adopt compassionate choices. 2. What are our objectives of the year? Goals in 3 or 5 years? Strategy Plan 2016 ­ 2020: Animal Equality has just finished its strategic plan for 2016­2020 and is working with an external company to have it summarized and transformed into a more visual document. As part of the strategic plan the organization has done a thorough internal and external analysis. Internal analysis: compilation of the financial, relations, material goods, management, function, procedures, dynamics of the organization in 8 countries. It has given insight to some of the internal problems that must be addressed as part of the strategy plan. As part of the external analysis we have analysed the education, legislation and companies in the 8 countries we are working in. This adds on to our STEP and SWOT analysis carried out sometime ago,as well as to the meat study being carried out in Germany to give AE an idea of what will be the areas of focus of the organization in the next years taking into account the organization's reality and resources. The organization’s country and international directors then had a 3 day meeting to discuss the organization's reality, identity and focus in the upcoming years.

  • JAHR 4-2011.Indd
    JAHR Vol. 2 No. 4 2011 UDK 575.4:17.03 Conference paper Eve-Marie Engels* Th e importance of Charles Darwin‘s theory for Fritz Jahr‘s conception of bioethics "Man in his arrogance thinks himself a great work. worthy the interposition of a deity, more humble & I believe true to consider him created from animals."** Charles Darwin, 1838 ABSTRACT Fritz Jahr is a pioneer of bioethics. In this article I will present and outline Jahr’s bioethical programme with a special emphasis on Charles Darwin’s role in Jahr’s ethics. According to Jahr, useful and effi cient animal protection can only be practised well if we have enough knowledge of nature. Jahr refers to Darwin who revolutionised our view of life and of the relationship between the human being and the rest of living nature. In the fi rst introductory section I will shortly present Jahr’s overall perspective and his bioethical imperative. I will also give a very short sketch of today’s bioethics. In the second and third section I will outline Dar- win’s revolutionary theory and its application to the human being. I will also present some of the reactions of his contemporaries which refl ect Darwin’s achievement for our understanding of living nature. In the fourth section I will go back to Fritz Jahr and will present and discuss diff erent aspects of his approach in more detail. A fi nal quotation from Hans Jonas about the dialectical character of Darwinism will trenchantly highlight Darwin’s importance for Fritz Jahr’s ethics.

  • Reducing Su Ering Among Invertebrates Such As Insects Policy
    Reducing suering among invertebrates such as insects Policy paper Invertebrates such as insects, spiders, worms and snails may very well feel pain, and we should therefore take actions to reduce their potential suering. The large number of such invertebrate individuals and the severity of the harms that they endure mean that their potential suering would be an ethical disaster. Sentience Politics advocates that actions should be taken in several areas: Invertebrates should, when possible, not be used in re- search and teaching, and should not be used as food and feed or in the production of silk, shellac, etc. If invertebrates are to be used in these areas, we advocate actions to at least reduce their suering. In addition, attempts to prevent invertebrates from damaging crops should use the least painful methods, and research should be done to develop methods that cause less suering. Finally, policy analysis should take into account the resulting amounts of suering among all invertebrates, whether it is caused by humans or not. May Policy paper by Sentience Politics.

  • The Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series
    The Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series Series editors: Andrew Linzey and Priscilla Cohn Associate editor: Clair Linzey In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the ethics of our treatment of animals. Philosophers have led the way, and now a range of other scholars have followed, from historians to social scientists. From being a marginal issue, animals have become an emerging issue in ethics and in multidisciplinary inquiry. This series explores the challenges that Animal Ethics poses, both conceptually and practically, to traditional understandings of human-animal relations. Specifically, the series will ● provide a range of key introductory and advanced texts that map out ethical positions on animals, ● publish pioneering work written by new, as well as accomplished, scholars, and ● produce texts from a variety of disciplines that are multidisciplinary in char- acter or have multidisciplinary relevance. Titles include Elisa Aaltola ANIMAL SUFFERING: PHILOSOPHY AND CULTURE Aysha Akhtar ANIMALS AND PUBLIC HEALTH Why Treating Animals Better Is Critical to Human Welfare Alasdair Cochrane AN INTRODUCTION TO ANIMALS AND POLITICAL THEORY Eleonora Gullone ANIMAL CRUELTY, ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOUR, AND HUMAN AGGRESSION More than a Link Alastair Harden ANIMALS IN THE CLASSICAL WORLD Ethical Perspectives from Greek and Roman Texts Lisa Johnson POWER, KNOWLEDGE, ANIMALS Andrew Knight THE COSTS AND BENEFITS OF ANIMAL EXPERIMENTS Randy Malamud AN INTRODUCTION TO ANIMALS IN VISUAL CULTURE Ryan Patrick McLaughlin CHRISTIAN THEOLOGY AND

  • Whales, Dolphins and Ethics: a Primer
    Whales, Dolphins and Ethics: A Primer Thomas I. White, Ph.D. Forthcoming in: Dolphin Communication & Cognition: Past, Present, Future. Edited by Denise L. Herzing and Christine M. Johnson. MIT Press. One of the most important features of science is that major discoveries regularly raise important ethical questions. This is especially true with research about cetaceans, because the discoveries of marine mammal scientists over the last 50 years have made it clear that whales and dolphins share traits once believed to be unique to humans: self-awareness, abstract thought, the ability to solve problems by planning ahead, understanding such linguistically sophisticated concepts as syntax, and the formation of cultural communities (Herman, 1984; Norris et al., 1991; Reiss & Marino, 2001). Accordingly, humanity faces a number of profound questions: What are the ethical implications of the fact that whales and dolphins demonstrate such intellectual and emotional sophistication? Which ethical standards should be used in evaluating how humans treat them? When looked at through this lens, which human behaviors are ethically problematic? How do we change our behavior to improve the situation? Engaging with these questions, however, poses a special challenge for marine mammal scientists. The scientific disciplines employ methodologies that emphasize the careful collection, cataloging and description of empirical data. By contrast, ethical considerations are essentially conceptual and normative. Ethical analyses begin with the facts related to the actions under investigation, but the primary point of an ethical analysis is to conclude what those facts tell us about the ethical acceptability or unacceptability of the actions under investigation. The fundamental challenge for marine mammal scientists who want to explore the ethical implications of what marine mammal science has discovered about whales and dolphins is to move from the description of facts about whales and dolphins to the evaluation of what those facts say about human behavior towards these cetaceans.

  • Cultured Meat: an Ethical Alternative to Industrial Animal Farming
    Cultured Meat: An Ethical Alternative To Industrial Animal Farming Policy paper Industrial livestock production presents a growing problem on a global scale in terms of animal welfare, environmental sustainability, and human health. One solution might be cultured meat, in which animal tissue is grown in a controlled environment using cell cul- ture technology, thereby making the raising and killing of animals for food unnecessary. This approach shows great potential of meeting all the requirements of a humane, sustain- able and healthy form of meat production. However, a great deal of scientific, technical, cultural and legislative challenges must be overcome before cultured meat can reach cost- competitiveness. Lack of funding is the main barrier to further development, and consid- erable upfront investment is needed for cultured meat to attain commercially viable retail prices. We therefore strongly support increased funding of cultured meat initiatives. This entails, in order of priority: research and development of technology suitable for mass pro- duction, promoting fact-based public discussion regarding the technology and its societal implications, and eventual marketing of end products to consumers.

  • Liebe Frau Dr. Kehrberg, Herr Dr. Henisch, Vielen Dank Für Ihre Arbeit
    Liebe Frau Dr. Kehrberg, Herr Dr. Henisch, Vielen Dank für Ihre Arbeit in diesem Jahr, die Karte und die Bestätigung. Ihnen, den Tieren und unserer Welt gleichfalls alles Gute für ein besseres 2018.- Wenn Sie die wertvollen Dokus Cowspiracy, unten stehender Link, und What The Health (damit kann die Doku vollständig mit D Untertiteln angeschaut werden) anschauen, werden Sie unsere Haltung verstehen und können vielleicht kreativ reagieren? Unser Fokus 2018 gilt der Reduktion tierischer Produkte, da dies erwiesenermassen der wirksamste Tier- und Umweltschutz ist. - Unsere Ernährung tötet zweifelsfrei den Planeten - die Tierwirtschaft haupt-verursacht • den Verlust der Biodiversität, Artensterben, Insektensterben • die Ausrottung der Raubtiere, • die Tierversuche - durch Volkskrankheiten infolge Konsums tierischer Produkte, die Big- Pharma auf den Plan bringen • die Abholzung der Regenwälder (26 Millionen Acres fallen den Palmölplantagen zum Opfer/136 Millionen Acres der Tierwirtschaft 2014/bis 91% der Amazon- Regenwälder) • die Ver-Wüstung riesiger Landstriche, Wasser Verknappung • die Verschmutzung der Gewässer, Luft und unserer Nahrungsmittel, • die Klimaerwärmung - das Sterben der Ozeane, den Welthunger und alle anderen damit verbunden Katastrophen. Gemäss Studien schliesst der Fleischkonsum Empathie gegenüber den verzehrten/‚genutzten' Tieren aus - und nimmt uns damit in einem Teufelskreis die Grundlage für nachhaltig wirksames Arbeiten. Wir zumindest werden nun einschlägige Organisationen vermehrt unterstützen und alle anderen nur je
