EPISODE 65, March 11th, 2022:

The meat paradox

In this programme, ffinlo Costain talks to Rob Percival, author of The Meat Paradox.

We are not wild animals and yet we still kill other sentient creatures and eat them in their billions. Rob charts our relationship with meat, from the scavenging of carcasses on an ancient savannah to the industrialised systems that produce much of the meat we consume today. He finds that emotional conflict has challenged human consciousness for many thousands of years.

The Meat Paradox is published by Little, Brown and you can order a copy here.
