2. Tools for Research no, it's not all about saving human

Chapter 4. Living Without Speciesism while combating
climate change and enjoying a healthier life -- Chapter 5.
Man's Dominion a short history of speciesism -- Chapter 6.
Speciesism Today objections to Animal Liberation, and the
progress made in overcoming them
520 Singer returns to the major arguments and examples of his
seminal 1975 work and brings us to the current moment.
This edition, revised from top to bottom, covers important
reforms in the European Union, and now in various U.S.
states. On the flip side, Singer shows the impact of the
expansion of factory farming due to demand for animal
products in China. Singer describes how meat consumption
is taking a toll on the environment, and factory farms
pose a profound risk for spreading new viruses even worse
than COVID-19. Animal Liberation Now includes alternatives
to what has become a profound environmental and social as
well as moral issue. Framed as an appeal to conscience,
fairness, decency, and justice, it is intended for the
supporter and the skeptic alike. -- Provided by
