Denmark’s “Pig Election” matters far beyond Denmark for healthy water - Greenpeace International

Denmark’s “Pig Election” shows how industrial meat and dairy are polluting drinking water and why this fight matters far beyond Denmark. From nitrate contamination to pesticide pollution, communities are pushing back against Big Ag and demanding a different food system.
