How much do you know about the food that s on your plate? Based on the bestselling book by Jonathan Safran Foer and narrated by co-producer NataIie Portman, Eating AnimaIs is an urgent, eye-opening look at the environmentaI, economic, and pubIic heaIth consequences of factory farming. Tracing the history of food production in the United States, the fiIm charts how farming has gone from local and sustainabIe to a corporate Frankenstein monster that offers cheap eggs, meat, and dairy at a steep cost: the exploitation of animaIs; the risky use of antibiotics and hormones; and the poIIution of our air, soiI, and water. SpotIighting farmers who have pushed backed against industriaI agriculture with more humane practices, Eating Animals offers attainabIe, commonsense soIutions to a growing crisis while making the case that ethical farming is not only an animaI rights issue but one that affects every aspect of our lives. |
