Most of us are unknowingly supporting a billion-dollar industry that's devastating the planet, exploiting countless animals, and harming human health — but Cameron Harsh reveals how a shift in awareness and action can tip the scales toward compassion and sustainability.
In this eye-opening episode, Cameron, Interim Executive Director of World Animal Protection, pulls back the curtain on the dark realities of factory farming, wildlife trade, and captive animal entertainment. From the cruel confinement of factory-farmed animals to the horrific trade of wild species like pangolins and bears, he explains why these industries persist despite decades of activism and legislation. You'll discover how powerful industry lobbying, hidden costs, and aggressive marketing campaigns keep cruelty in plain sight, and what changes are slowly turning the tide.
