Some breeds of chicken CAN fly (video)

Feathers to Flight: Do Chickens Have the Power to Soar?

Go vegan for freedom! Chickens are living beings

(The Happy Chicken Coop) Ever wonder about the gravity-defying capabilities of our feathered friends?

This video asks, "Can chickens fly?"

In the sequel, I kill chickens.

It delves into the flight abilities of chickens (hens and cockerels), challenging common myths and uncovering the truth about these amazing birds.

We explore how their wing structure, weight, and breed play a role in their flying ability. We also share some fascinating facts about how chickens have adapted their "flight" for survival and routine activities.

Why did the chicken cross the road? (Suicide bid)

So are backyard chickens earthbound, or can they take to the skies? Let's ruffle some feathers and find out together.

The Happy Chicken Coop is the place for more insightful poultry content. Stay clucky, Mothercluckers! And whatever you don't imprison or abuse chickens. Let them be free.

Farmers vs. Vegans: hardcore debate (video)

Hammad, 3/11/23; Ananda (Dharma B Meditation), Seven, Ashley (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Youthful, vibrant, beautiful animal-loving vegans debate old, crusty, pissed animal killers.

There's more than enough delicious nutritious food for everyone when we go vegan.

.

Vegans vs. Farmers: Hardcore Heated Debate

(Hammad c) The vegans vs. farmers debate is a heated battle of ethics, environmentalism, and the health implications of raising, tormenting, butchering, and consuming animal bodies.

WARNING: Violent numbing videogaming! Killer in training reacts to vegan activist compassion.

Eating "meat" free of killing animals

Conscientious and compassionate vegans argue that killing animals to make them "food" is unethical and that a plant-based diet is the most sustainable and healthy lifestyle for human health.

However, conservative and compassionate farmers stand by their animal butchering practices, arguing that it's necessary to make "food" out of these living beings to make money (a livelihood).

The stakes are high, and both sides have compelling arguments. To find common ground, we need constructive dialogue and solutions that benefit everyone -- including animals, our shared environment, farmers, and these d*mn cr*zy vegans.

Animal Liberation Front Ohio frees 40K mink

Heroic "vandals" at Ohio farm release 25,000 mink, 10,000 go free into wild, sheriff angry (fox7austin.com). Vandals schmandals! Animal liberators concerned with the welfare of tens of thousands of tortured animals being prepared for slaughter in Ohio took to direct action to liberate them. They left the writing on the wall, literally, to show who and why it was done. Maybe an impersonator did it. Maybe it's an insurance scam by the owners. Maybe Nazi youth trying to make the local hippies look bad spray painted that message. Maybe a neighboring farm is trying to destroy Lion Farms. Who knows. The mink are out now, and that part of Ohio is not likely to be the same. Some are sure to go feral, survive, thrive, and invade the local ecosystem. Did the torturers ever think of that when they imported these animals from another habitat and kept them in cages their whole lives before being slaughtered for the fur trade? What if these carnivores made it to a chicken farm? It might mean financial disaster. The solution by local yokels? Guns. It's open season on these curious creatures trying to survive in a foreign land, yet all the cruelty is being blamed on the liberators who saved these souls from certain death by their torturers and captors.

Slaughterhouse: The Shocking Story of Greed, Neglect, and Inhumane Treatment Inside the U.S. Meat Industry

(Gail A. Eisnitz) Slaughterhouse is the first book of its kind to explore the impact that unprecedented changes in the U.S. meatpacking industry over the last 25 years -- particularly

• industry consolidation,
• increased line speeds, and
• deregulation

-- have had on workers, animals, and American flesh consumers. It is also the first time ever that workers have spoken publicly about what's really taking place behind the closed doors of America's slaughterhouses.

In this new paperback edition, author Gail A. Eisnitz brings the story up-to-date since the book's original publication. She describes the ongoing efforts by the Humane Farming Association to improve conditions in the meatpacking industry, media exposes that have prompted reforms resulting in multimillion dollar appropriations by Congress to try to enforce federal inspection laws, and a favorable decision by the Supreme Court to block construction of what was slated to be one of the largest hog factory farms in the country.

Nonetheless, Eisnitz makes it clear that abuses continue and much work still needs to be done. Slaughterhouse: The Shocking

ABOUT: Christopher Hedges is an American journalist, Presbyterian minister, and visiting Princeton University lecturer. His books include his most recent America: The Farewell Tour (2018), Wages of Rebellion: The Moral Imperative of Revolt (2015), Empire of Illusion: The End of Literacy and the Triumph of Spectacle (2009); Death of the Liberal Class (2010); Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt (2012), written with cartoonist Joe Sacco, at one time a New York Times best-seller.

Whole Foods vs. Wayne in Berkeley (video)

NowThis, 12/25/19, Wayne Hsuing; Ellie Askew, CC Liu, Dhr. Seven (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Animals activists pressure Whole Foods over its alleged animal abuse

Whole Foods has gone Amazon. Go, Wayne!

(NowThis News) Whole Foods is allegedly suing 100+ animal rights activists for asking questions about where its products come from and how they're made. Co-founder of Direct Action Everywhere (and Berkeley mayoral candidate) Wayne Hsiung (\shung\) is being sued by Amazon Corporation branch company Whole Foods for asking questions, alleging, and protesting animal cruelty in the factory farm operations that sell meat to its stores. Human health and animal welfare are top concerns for Hsiung. This video includes footage of the activist arrested outside Whole Foods in Berkeley.

We need 8 trillion trees, here's 8 billion

Jon Chambers (8billiontrees.com); CC Liu, Crystal Quintero (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Trees may be our only hope... Let me tell you why in just 90 seconds

Jon Chambers, founder of 8 Billion Trees

Hi, I'm Jon Chambers. (That’s me in the picture on the left). That's only important because we likely share one very big thing in common: a desperation to act and save our planet from an accelerating climate crisis.

What I'm about to tell you completely changed my mind on climate change and habitat destruction FOREVER.

It caused me to use every dollar in my name, move thousands of miles, and give up everything. Half a century ago, I would never have done that. Everything has changed now.

It’s why I founded 8 Billion Trees, and it’s why we're here in this moment. It’s why I've given up everything (which I will explain in just a moment) to erase two tons of your or my neighbor's carbon footprint, absolutely free.

Yes, using money out of my own pocket and my own hands and trees I grew in a nursery, I will erase someone else's carbon footprint for FREE.

What's the “why”? Why our world now is drastically different than even the one our parent’s (and grandparents) grew up in, regardless of our age… And what the Number 1 scientifically-proven correlation to the destruction of the planet is? Trees.

• [EDITORS' NOTE: How many trees do we need? There are 7 to 8 billion people. Each needs 400 trees to balance or sequester carbon produced on average. 8,000,000,000 x 400 = 3,200,000,000. Or how many trees were there on the planet before we destroyed jungles, forests, stands, and wildernesses? (8 trillion)? And how many are there now? In the meantime, maybe we should grow fields of hemp and put the minerals and bacteria plankton feed on back in the ocean (removed by dam building) so that coral reefs come back, as Dr. Joel Wallach discovered was the cause of coral loss.]

Who wants change? Who wants to change?

There's a deadly "3-pronged" crisis killing our planet. You may be reading because of the horrific deforestation crisis around the world, how it is rapidly accelerating, already 50% worse than it was last year.

Over half the planet's wildlife has been wiped out through habitat destruction. Our own carbon footprint is two massive tons every month.

To have ANY hope of solving any of these problems, we have to solve them all. Humans have wiped out 60% of animals since 1970 (Zoological Society of London). That’s right. That's us. Humans are just 0.01% of all life but have destroyed 6 out of every 10 animals and many plants species. What happened?

Who's this beautiful little guy? (Margaret Mead)

It didn’t just spring out of nowhere… Like I promised, everything happens for a reason. Every cause has an effect. Trees. They are vanishing from the earth at an unprecedented rate.

And it’s not affecting just animals like the orangutan fighting for her life in the video. It’s permanently affecting humans.

The reason is simple. Forests are home to 80% of the world’s biodiversity. Eighty percent of every living animal, plant, and organism directly depends on trees. When the forests go, so do the animals, plants, and everything else.

In the time it takes to read this sentence, 4,612 trees have been destroyed (4 seconds). Gone.

Loggers and cattle ranchers clear-cut trees leaving topsoil exposed to rain erosion, flooding.

.

But it would be wrong to say this and not provide the four hard facts, based on studies from experts in virtually every field... They show “cross-domain” significance.

This is a scientific way of explaining that these four cross-domain facts show what is happening in virtually every corner of the planet, even areas not included in the four facts.

1. At least 50 million acres of rainforest are lost every year, totaling an area the size of England, Wales, and Scotland combined.
2. Only 10% of Original Forests Remain in Madagascar.
3. 98% of Ethiopia’s forest have been destroyed in the last 50 years.
4. The United States has less than 4% of its forests left.

We love our kids like we love ourselves.

Just 50 years ago I never would have left everything behind. One single day put everything into perspective and show just how harmful our modern lives have become…

This is painfully real. It will happen in our lifetime. The real cause of the destruction is shockingly simple. What I am about to say is painful… Every single second, an entire football field of forest is erased. And because trees are directly tied to carbon sequestration, when the trees go, a massive carbon footprint takes their place.

Anthropologist Margaret Mead and friends

It can be hard to understand how FAST this really is without a visual in front of you. So here's one of a devastated area our team found in the Amazon that is exactly 1.86 acres (the size of a football field).

Because of all of this, the average person in today’s modern world—in other words, every single person we know—is directly responsible for the destruction of over 400 trees.

Okay now for the “good” news… There is something AMAZING about this otherwise horrific situation. By replacing the trees, we swap the life-giving carbon for biodiversity, green growth, rich oxygen, habitats, and more! More

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, organized citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” – American anthropologist Margaret Mead

From bird to BEES: "Honeyland" (doc)

NEON, June 2019; Ashley Wells, CC Liu, Crystal Q. (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Honeyland [official trailer] – in theaters July 26, 2019

All-natural beekeeper Hatidze lives with her ailing mother in the mountains of Macedonia (Eastern Europe, above Greece), making a living cultivating honey using ancient beekeeping traditions.

When an unruly family moves in next door, what at first seems like a balm for Hatidze's solitude becomes a source of tension as they, too, want to practice beekeeping but keep disregarding her sage advice.

This is the most-awarded film at this year's Sundance Film Festival, winning the "World Cinema Grand Jury Prize," a "Special Jury Award for Cinematography," and another "Special Jury Award for Originality."

Honeyland is an epic, a visually stunning portrait of the delicate balance between nature and humanity that has something sweet for everyone.
