Show #628: RIGHTEOUS ANIMALS
Guests: Rancher Bill Niman and Rancher, Lawyer, Author Nicolette Hahn Niman
Subject: They moved the animal farm into a factory so we could have cheap food. But Michael Olson’s Third Law of the Food Chain says Cheap food isn’t! And so we wonder… Is there a viable alternative to the factory farm?
Topics include how Bill Niman built a $65 million dollar business on the principal of righteous animal husbandry; how Nicolette Hahn Niman waged war with factory farms as an attorney with Bobby Kennedy’s Waterkeeper Alliance; and whether there is an economically viable alternative to industrial animal husbandry.
