‘Horror Story’ Pig Farm Hogwood Expected To Close This Year https://plantbasednews.org/animals/horror-pig-farm-hogwood-to-close/
Ammonia pollution and air pollution in general blight lives and factory farming is an abomination from a welfare, environmental and infection risk perspective, but this is an extremely misleading headline from the Guardian. The study didn't find a correlation between ammonia concentration in tested air in areas with high factory farming density, it estimated the likely ammonia concentration in the air from the amount of animal waste generated. Sloppy reporting like this hurts our cause by making our concerns easily discreditable.
