Deteniendo el lavado verde del salmón industrial (Harris v. Trapananda Seafarms)
Big Aquaculture is following the same model of environmental degradation, worker exploitation, and consumer deception as the land-based corporate animal agriculture system.

Monitoreo de la FERC para detener el gas de granjas industriales
Big Ag loves to tout a fantasy where factory farm gas, which is methane gas produced from waste like manure, is good for the environment.
