EU must save energy by shutting down factory farming, say NGOs

This joint statement was published by four NGOs BirdLife Europe and Central Asia, Compassion in World Farming, the European Environmental
Bureau and Four Paws.

While industrial agriculture lobbies are pressing the EU for more money and secure access to energy during the current crisis, governments should instead shut down factory farming this winter. Europe would not only save energy but also mitigate the climate and public health crises.
