Making the Connection: Addressing Animal Agriculture in the Climate Movement

Freedom of Species 12 April 2026


Background
share close

Why are so many climate activists still hungry for flesh?In today’s show, Betty and Nick talk about the importance of adressing animal agriculture within the climate justice movement. Those of us living in the global North must be willing to confront how our daily consumption choices contribute to climate change as well as understanding how corperations and governments continue to profit from environmental destruction. We finish on a discussion about the unproven theories of white Zimbabwean cattle farmer, Allan Savory. It’s easy for greenwashed misinformation about animal agriculture to spread because people would rather believe that eating animals can be sustainable even if there is no scientific evidence to support it.Further reading:https://www.surgeactivism.org/allansavoryMusic played:Livin’ Thing – Electric Light OrchestraTreading water – Petrol girlsTrouble in the Water – Common

A weekly show hosted by Melbourne-based animal advocates, presenting local and international interviews, presentations, and music from this vibrant social justice movement. The show is broadcast on 3CR Community Radio 855AM
