James McWilliams will give a talk entitled “Are non-industrial methods of animal agriculture viable solutions to factory farming?“, which is part of the “Think before you eat” series:

Thursday, September 26, 2013
from 6pm to 8pm
McGill University, Leacock Building – LEA 232
Montreal, Canada

According to the author, the talk will explore the hidden ecological and ethical abuses that characterize small-scale animal agriculture, challenging the popular opinion that non-industrial methods of animal agriculture are viable solutions to factory farming. In addition to discussing these abuses, the talk will also explore strategies that animal advocates can pursue to promote veganism without alienating conscientious consumers.

The event is open to the public with free entrance but there is a suggested donation of $5 (at the door). Tickets must be booked in advance via the event’s website.
