Weis Tony - The Ecological Hoofprint The Global Burden Of Industrial Livestock - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: The exploding global consumption of meat is implicated in momentous but greatly underappreciated problems and industrial livestock production is the driving force behind soaring demand. Following his previous ground - breaking book The Global Food Economy Tony Weis explains clearly why the growth and industrialization of livestock production is a central part of the accelerating biophysical contradictions of industrial capitalist agriculture. The Ecological Hoofprint provides a rigorous and eye - opening way of understanding what this system means for the health of the planet how it contributes to worsening human inequality and how it constitutes a profound but invisible aspect of the violence of everyday life.
