Thanks to a faltering economy, consumption of animal products is way down in China. The chairman of the country’s top factory farming company says, “We thought agriculture products would be spared from the financial crisis: we were wrong.” The same is occurring in the United States. 1% of Americans say they don't eat meat at all and 26% say they have cut down.
A commodity analyst chimes in: “Declining income will definitely have an impact on food consumption, especially for meat and meat products.”
The global financial crisis is certainly causing much human hardship, but it’s also preventing great amounts of animal suffering.
