Brighter Green Produces First Publication

Brighter Green, in league with Farm Sanctuary, has produced a white paper (PDF), analyzing the U.S. Farm Bill. Brighter Green wanted to approach the paper from a holistic perspective: in other words, one that examined the issues of food security, environmental conservation, and animal welfare, and offer a vision of farming that respected the earth, local and organic agriculture, and the farming communities who have been decimated because of decades of decisions made by successive Congresses regarding who and what is funded.

Both Brighter Green and Farm Sanctuary hope that this unique collaboration and analysis will offer a blueprint for a further conversation about the future of farming in the United States, about corporate power and subsidies, and, in a larger sense, about our relationship with the land and other animals.
