Animal Agriculture Laws On The Chopping Block: Comparing United States And Brazil, Elizabeth Bennett
Pace Environmental Law Review
Brazil and the United States are among the largest producers and exporters of livestock in the world. This raises important animal rights and environmental concerns. While many of the impacts of industrial animal agriculture are similar in Brazil and the United States, there are key differences in the effects on animals and the environment.
