  • Animal Welfare (Sentience) Bill
    Written evidence submitted by Viva! (AWB0004) Animal Welfare (Sentience) Bill Viva! is the UK’s leading vegan campaigning charity, specialising in undercover investigations and high-profile animal campaigns. Founded in 1994 by Juliet Gellatley, we have spent more than 25 years creating a kinder, more sustainable world for humans and animals alike. The proposed terms of reference for the inquiry are addressed below: 1. Will the Animal Welfare (Sentience) Bill ensure that animal sentience is properly taken into account in both new and existing government policy in England? Animal sentience refers to the ability of animals to feel and experience emotions such as joy, pleasure, pain and fear. It is animals’ capacity to feel both positive and negative states that drives the animal welfare movement and is the reason why animal protection laws exist (Procter et al., 2013). According to the government, animal welfare relates to both the physical health and mental wellbeing of the animal. This has been encapsulated by the “Five Needs” as documented in the 2006 Animal Welfare Act: the need for a suitable environment the need for a suitable diet the need to be able to exhibit normal behaviour patterns the need to be housed with, or apart from, other animals the need to be protected from pain, suffering, injury and disease Brexit and farmed animals It can be argued that the five needs (described above) are not being met under current legislation. Leaving the EU has provided the UK government with a unique opportunity to extend and improve existing animal welfare standards in accordance with the evidence.

  • WHY VEG A5 Flyer.Indd
    Boycott Cruelty Go Vegan! TURNING ANIMALS INTO FOOD Many people believe (and hope) that animals raised for food for humans must be very well treated because sick, diseased or dead animals would be of no use to agribusiness. But this is not true. FACTORY FARMING= INDUSTRIALISED CRUELTY The pressure to produce inexpensive beef, chicken, pork, veal, fish, eggs, milk and dairy products has led modern farming to treat animals as mere commodities or machines. There is a trend worldwide to replace small family farms with intensive, industrialised, factory farms. The philosophy of mass production is what lies behind it all. “...if the public knew more about the way in which agricultural and animal production infringes on animal welfare, the outcry would be louder.” BERNARD E. ROLLIN, PhD Farm Animal Welfare, Iowa State University Press, 1995. Bernard Rollin is author of more than 150 papers and 10 books on ethics and animal science. Hens in crowded cages suffer severe feather loss. “The life of an animal in a factory farm is characterised by acute deprivation, stress, and disease. Hundreds of millions of animals are forced to live in cages just barely larger than their own bodies. While one species may be caged alone without any social contact, another species may be crowded so tightly together that they fall prey to stress-induced cannibalism… the victims of factory farms exist in a relentless state of distress.” Humane Farming Association: 2 The Dangers of Factory Farming Inside a broiler house. Broiler Chickens Virtually all chickens in Australia raised for meat are factory farmed.

  • James Southwood Is the New World Champion in Savate (French Kickboxing)
    Kicking up a fight James Southwood is the new World Champion in Savate (French Kickboxing) 34 ames Southwood won the Savate (French Kickboxing) world championships for Great Britain on World Vegan Day. A vegan Jsince the age of 17, James told Vegan Life that the words ‘world champion’ were only just sinking in. How long have you been vegan? Like a lot of vegans, I started as a vegetarian. I’ve been vegetarian since December 1980, when John Lennon was shot – which might seem an odd way of explaining it but that was a pivotal moment for my father, who turned the whole family vegetarian. So that’s pretty much my whole life, I was just two years old at the time. When I was 17, I found Juliet Gellatley’s book, The Silent Ark. I remember having a dinner party conversation one weekend and defending vegetarianism, saying that I thought veganism was unnecessary. Two weeks later, I saw the same person and argued the full vegan case, after reading that book. You won your world title on World Vegan Day. What’s the importance of that for you? I’ve been doing Savate since I was 20, which means that I’ve been Your blog’s called Dying to win. Why dying? How, if at all, does vegan across my whole sporting career. When I saw that the fnals that tie back to veganism? would be held on World Vegan Day, I did wonder whether I would I like to trace a lot of human anxieties and the human condition back be able to bring the two things together.

  • A History of Veganism from 1806
    1 World Veganism – past, present, and future By John Davis, former IVU Manager and Historian A collection of blogs © John Davis 2010-12 Introduction This PDF e-book is about 8mb, 219 pages A4, (equivalent to 438 page paperback book), so I strongly recommend that you save a copy to your own disk, then open it in the Adobe Acrobat Reader. That way, you won’t have to download it all again if you want to read more of it sometime later. Creating this as a PDF e-book has several advantages, especially if you are reading this on a device connected to the internet. For example: - in the blog about interviews on SMTV, just click on the links to watch the videos - in the bibliography click to read a complete scan of an original very old book. - on the contents page click a link to go direct to any item, then click ‘back to top’. - you can also, of course, use other features such as search, zoom etc. etc. - a great advance on printed books… It should work on any device, though an ipad/tablet is ideal for this as there are lots of big colour photos, or on smart-phones try rotating for best results, on a larger computer monitor try view/page display/two up, to read it like a book. The blogs were posted weekly from February 2010 to December 2012 and each is self- contained, with the assumption that readers might not have seen any of the others. So feel free to start anywhere, and read them in any order, no need to read from the beginning.
