JULY 2019 on Eating Meat: the Truth About Its Production and the Ethics of Eating It Matthew Evans AUSTRALIA JULY 2019 On Eating Meat: The truth about its production and the ethics of eating it Matthew Evans A scorching manifesto on the ethics of eating meat by the best placed person to write about it - farmer and chef Matthew Evans, aka The Gourmet Farmer. Description 'Compelling, illuminating and often confronting, On Eating Meat is a brilliant blend of a gastronome's passion with forensic research into the sources of the meat we eat. Matthew Evans brings his unflinching honesty - and a farmer's hands-on experience - to the question of how to be an ethical carnivore.' Hugh Mackay 'Intellectually thrilling - a book that challenges both vegans and carnivores in the battle for a new ethics of eating. This book will leave you surprised, engrossed and sometimes shocked - whatever your food choices.' Richard Glover How can 160,000 deaths in one day constitute a 'medium-sized operation'? Think beef is killing the world? What about asparagus farms? Or golf? Eat dairy? You'd better eat veal, too. Going vegan might be all the rage, but the fact is the world has an ever-growing, insatiable appetite for meat - especially cheap meat. Former food critic and chef, now farmer and restaurateur Matthew Evans grapples with the thorny issues around the ways we produce and consume animals. From feedlots and abattoirs, to organic farms and animal welfare agencies, he has an intimate, expert understanding of the farming practices that take place in our name. Evans calls for less radicalisation, greater understanding, and for ethical omnivores to stand up for the welfare of animals and farmers alike. Sure to spark intense debate, On Eating Meat is an urgent read for all vegans, vegetarians and carnivores.

In Sanary she fell in love - she dearly loves many men, but falls in love with women - and her mother, unhinged by her young husband's infidelity, became a morphine addict.

  • “Using Inmobi Audiences, We Were Able to Tailor Our Targeting to Reach the Highest Value Consumers” - Angad Grover TRADING MANAGER
    Case Study “Using InMobi Audiences, we were able to tailor our targeting to reach the highest value consumers” - Angad Grover TRADING MANAGER Background News Corp Australia is one of Australia's largest media companies, and the leading digital destination in the country for news, food, lifestyle, property, style, sports and business. The publicly listed company's portfolio of newspapers and magazines are among the most trusted and well-known in the country, with brands such as The Daily Telegraph, Herald Sun, Vogue Australia and GQ Australia leading the way. News Xtend, the brand’s digital marketing division, was built in 2014 to help empower brands to create and deliver powerful digital campaigns. Meriton Suites, Australia’s largest owner-operator of hotel rooms (4,500+ suites) approached News Xtend to help expand their reach across five metro cities in Australia. With their award-winning hotels continually ranking at the top in these five locations, Meriton wanted to capitalize on the opportunity and develop an approach to gain new visibility by targeting specific user groups across advertising demand-side platforms (DSPs) to promote reservations and scale growth. The Challenge Meriton Suites wanted to drive increased awareness and boost conversions among foreign expats and international travelers. The team wanted to target two groups - business professionals and families with kids, as they were Meriton’s highest-value customer groups since they were the most likely to reserve rooms, and reach them with targeted content to drive awareness and inspire purchase. For this, the team needed a highly tailored strategy to analyze and track behaviors that would suggest a high likelihood of interest in international travel and accommodation services.
