'An honest, compelling and important account, and a critical plea for a fusion of farming, food and nature to provide global ecological security' CHRIS PACKHAM
Why are so many animals facing extinction?
Climate change and poaching are not the only culprits. The impact of consumer demand for cheap meat is equally devastating, and it is vital that we confront this problem if we are to stand a chance of reducing its effect on the world around us.
· We are falsely led to believe that squeezing animals into factory farms and cultivating crops in vast, chemical-soaked prairies is a necessary evil, an efficient means of providing for an ever-expanding global population while leaving land free for wildlife
· Our planet's resources are reaching breaking point: awareness is slowly building that the wellbeing of society depends on a thriving natural world
From the author of the internationally acclaimed Farmageddon, Dead Zone takes us on an eye-opening journey across the globe, focussing on a dozen iconic species - from elephants to bumblebees to penguins - and looking at the role that industrial farming is playing in their plight.
Philip Lymbery is chief executive of leading international farm animal welfare organisation Compassion in World Farming. His first book, Farmageddon: The True Cost of Cheap Meat, was chosen as one of The Times ' Books of the Year in 2014. He played leading roles in many major animal welfare reforms, including Europe-wide bans on veal crates for calves and barren battery cages for laying hens. One of the food industry's most influential people, he has spearheaded Compassion's engagement work with more than 700 food companies worldwide, leading to genuine improvements in the lives of more than three quarters of a billion farm animals every year.
