Animal Climate & Health Save India’s Post

Powerful reminder: If humans killed each other at the same rate we kill other animals, we'd be extinct in just 17 days. Let that sink in. This thought-provoking statistic underscores the urgent need for compassion and respect towards all living beings. It's time to reevaluate our relationship with the natural world and the animals we share it with. Let's strive for a future where empathy guides our actions, where every life is valued and protected. Together, we can make a difference by promoting kindness, advocating for animal rights, and fostering a culture of coexistence. Let's build a world where harmony prevails, where humans and animals can thrive side by side. The choices we make today shape the world of tomorrow. Let's choose compassion. #silentscreams #animaltrafficking #saveanimals #westandforanimals #loveanimals❤ #animalsafety #stoptrafficking #animals #animallovers #animalsofinstagram

Today is National Animal Rights Day! Do we think education can lead to a real shift in the way our culture views and treats animals? Absolutely. Education is one of the key aspects in creating change as it invites us to explore the inconsistencies in our treatment of nonhuman animals, develop techniques for learning and teaching about complex animal issues in a constructive manner that invites dialogue and positive solutions, and identify solutionary innovations that protect animals, nature, and humans. There is hope of creating a better world!

While non-animal research methods are crucial, the right policy and legislation is also needed. Want an example? The Animal Welfare (Sentience) Act 2022. It was hailed as a significant step forward in recognising, in law, the sentience of animals, including invertebrate animals like lobsters, crabs, and octopus, and their capacity to suffer. Despite their sentience being recognised, the Act has no impact on existing legislation, including the use of animals in scientific research. This means that other than cephalopod species, such as octopus, who are already protected by animal research legislation, invertebrates currently have no greater legal protection in any sense. This is why rigorous policy is essential in animal research. Read more about it in our Policy Approach: https://lnkd.in/eXHGharu #ALawDay #AnimalLawDay #AnimalResearch

🗽🇺🇸🦅 Happy #AnimalFreedomDay! Why does Project Animal Freedom celebrate freedom for all animals on the 4th of July? Because freedom is an American ideal, and all animals deserve to live safe, happy, and free. Yet billions of animals live some of the most unfree lives imaginable. That is why we not only celebrate the cause for animal freedom, but also commemorate the billions of animals currently trapped in factory farms, animal labs, and other animal-abusing facilities. Please join us in celebrating Animal Freedom Day by: 1. hosting a vegan BBQ 2. protesting 4th of July cruelty 3. refraining from shooting off fireworks All people are born with certain inalienable rights, including life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is our duty to ensure that these rights are extended to all animals, because justice for all means justice for animals. Their freedom is our freedom. Now let’s fight for it!

"🐮💚😊 Cows are friends, not food!" Project Animal Freedom released this video on May 3rd. It has since amassed over 2.3 million views. The combined watch time? 325,477 minutes! If just one person watched our video on repeat, they would have to watch nonstop for 226 days to rack up that much watch time. That’s why we make these little videos. They can capture a great deal of attention, inspire reflection on the human-animal relationship, and advance the conversation around animal rights. This video, in particular, encourages people to reflect on whether cows and dogs are morally different enough to warrant the vastly different treatment they generally receive. In so doing, it advances an anti-speciesist worldview wherein all animals deserve to be treated with respect, regardless of species. Please keep an eye out for future miniatures like this one. We are proud to produce these little videos that often have an outsized impact.

A chimpanzee, a mouse and a chicken, three different species yet they all feel pain, love, joy and fear just as we do. It’s time to question the barriers we’ve built between ourselves and other beings. Speciesism, the assumption that one species is more important than another, has led to immense suffering for animals worldwide. But we have the power to challenge this mindset and create a kinder, more compassionate world. Every small step, choosing plant-based meals, advocating for animal rights or simply speaking up, brings us closer to ending this unfair treatment. Together, we can build a future where respect and kindness extend to all living beings. How are you making a difference for animals today? Let’s inspire each other to take action #EndSpeciesism #AnimalRights #CompassionForAll #Kindness

The world of diving medicine presents unique challenges that require careful research and testing to ensure the safety of divers. While the topic of animal testing is often controversial, it's crucial to consider the complexities involved in developing life-saving treatments and protocols for divers. This article from InDepth Magazine explores the ongoing debate surrounding animal testing in diving medicine, shedding light on its current necessity and potential alternatives. As we delve into this sensitive subject, it's important to recognize that while animal testing may be viewed unfavorably by some, the alternatives of human testing or forgoing testing altogether could have far more severe consequences. The article presents a balanced view of the ethical considerations and scientific requirements in this field, encouraging readers to think critically about the role of animal studies in advancing diver safety and medical knowledge. I invite you to read this piece and share your thoughts on this complex issue. How do we balance ethical concerns with the need for rigorous scientific research in diving medicine? #divesafety #buceanaui #divenaui #nauiSpain

Please sign and share!!! URGENT!! 💯👇📣👇📣💯🐢🦜🐾🐰🐀🐹🦔🐣🦆🐸 The Humane Society of the United States' recent undercover investigation of SeaQuest, a multi-state chain of shopping mall wildlife petting zoos, unveiled distressing scenes at multiple locations. Businesses like SeaQuest that put profits over animal welfare and endanger public safety should NOT be allowed to continue. Demand change by supporting the Better CARE for Animals Act NOW! Despite being cited by the U.S. Department of Agriculture more than 110 times for violations of the Animal Welfare Act, SeaQuest continues to operate their businesses where money-making interactions are prioritized over providing even the most basic animal care. This cruelty needs to end. That's why we're working hard to pass the Better CARE for Animals Act, which will strengthen multi-agency collaboration in enforcement of the AWA helping to shut down places like SeaQuest for good. The bill has strong bipartisan support, but we only have a short window to pass it before the end of the year—please tell your legislators to support this important bill TODAY! https://lnkd.in/eSPieXXf
