Mission Possible: Reimagining Scale and Humanely Raised Animal Agriculture

Marriott, Marquis Ballroom Northeast

Why are higher animal welfare standards important? Can humanely raised meats be done on a large scale? What are the current challenges in animal agriculture? Who are the key players in changing the meat we eat? Join Food Journalist and Author Mark Bittman as he moderates a discussion around these questions. A clip from At the Fork, a documentary that takes an unbiased look at how farm animals are raised for consumption, will be shown followed by a powerful panel discussion with the filmmakers, animal welfare experts, and leaders in the meat industry who are in pursuit of raising the bar on humanely raised standards.
