"Cutting back on #meat and eating more plant-based meals [are] a sure way to slash agricultural #emissions, but politically challenging.

Down another path lies the more politically palatable, yet far less effective, approach of continuing to eat record amounts of meat in the West while deploying a host of technologies and farming practices, each of which can only marginally shave off livestock emissions."

Guess which path is being pushed, hard.

Drug-resistant infection - The agricultural sector has escaped scrutiny

"The issue of untreatable infections is no longer an abstract notion; it is now a reality."

"The Joint Expert Advisory Committee on Antibiotic Resistance (JETACAR) said "the transfer of antibiotic-resistant bacteria along the meat chain is believed to be one of the most significant sources of antibiotic-resistant bacteria from animals", and the scientific consensus since then has only hardened."

"For decades, the meat industry used the drugs with relative abandon. The majority of this use had been not to treat sick animals, but as a key ingredient in animal feed to promote rapid growth and act as a prophylactic."

"JETACAR revealed two-thirds of Australia's antibiotics were being used in animals, and most of that for "subtherapeutic doses" to increase growth, prevent disease and "reduce feed requirements"."

"It was only a few weeks ago, three years into the new strategy, that the Department of Health finally awarded a $438,000 contract to big-four consultancy KPMG for the design of the surveillance system."

If you order a beef burger with bacon, cheese & mayo, this requires someone to kill:

1. The cow for the beef
2. The pig for the bacon
3. The baby cow and the mother cow (eventually) for the cheese
4. The mother hen (eventually) for the egg mayo
5. Potentially several baby male chicks which are a byproduct of the egg industry

Or if you choose a veggie burger with vegan cheese & vegan mayo, you choose not to kill anything.

Don’t choose violence.
Choose vegan.

Today I gave our #turkeys and #ducks a solar-powered shower (as I needed to move the last remaining rainwater across the garden anyway).

I hope you enjoy the clip as much as they enjoyed the water!

Also, they will be absolutely delighted about anyone who is so kind to mark any pictures of their deceased brethren as sensitive and/or tag them as #food, #meat or #thanksgiving, so they can filter out any upsetting posts from their human's feed!

#TurkeysOfMastodon #Gobbledon

I am standing next to a solar panel in front of a couple of IBCs filled with rainwater.

After explaining that I'm about to give the turkeys and ducks a solar powered shower, I switch on the power to a small pump that is attached to one of the IBCs.

I then cross the garden, following the hose attached to the pump and grab its other end which is already spurting out water.

As soon as I start filling up a pink baby bath underneath a couple of olive trees, two excited turkeys approach, followed by two slightly wary ducks.

They all start drinking straight from the hose and the bath, occasionally making excited noises.

Eventually I have to tell off the turkeys for hogging the hose, accidentally pecking my finger and intentionally pecking my mobile.

The duck finally have a chance to enjoy the water too and I exclaim that it is now time to switch off the water before it overflows.

I’m not going to make a big pie this week, but I have a bunch of left over steak from a dinner out so I might make a hand pie with the leftovers. Last weekend I feel like I overdid it with the cooking so this week I’m taking it easy. I still have many jars of soup and a slice of that pie.

And by taking it easy I mean I put 3.4 lbs of pork shoulder in the slow cooker for pulled pork. It’s slow but the active effort is low.

The sauce and the mashed potatoes (extra finely pureed) were perhaps a little too thin. But it was very tasty.
