Paperback. Etat : Very Good. 288 pages. 'An animal activist's journey to the other side' Joanna LumleyThis is the sto ry of what happens when we cross enemy lines to look for solutions.Leah Garcâ  s has dedicated her career to fighting for the rights of the animals that end up on our plates. As the former US Executive Director of Compassion in World Farming and the current President of the non-profit group Mercy for Animals, sh e has led the fight against the sprawling chicken industry that raises billions of birds in cruel conditions - all to satisfy our appetite for meat.Grilled is L eah's story of working alongside the food and farming industry for animal welfar e and ethical food. Instead of fighting and protesting and shaming - approaches that simply haven't worked previously - Garcâ s has instead tried to fin d common ground with producers. She has worked alongside owners of the megafarms , befriending them, having frank conversations with them, and ultimately encoura ging change through dialogue and discussion. Leah is helping to directly improve the lives of millions of farm animals, and pushing alternatives such as plant-b ased substitutes and lab-grown meats to the top of the agenda, with some of the mega-farm conglomerates joining forces with her to explore these avenues.When sh e started her journey, Leah Garcâ s did not have much empathy to spare f or the contract chicken farmer -until she actually met one and tried to understa nd the difficulties they faced. This is the story of giving in to discomfort for the sake of progress. It's a story of the power of human connection, and what h appens when we practice empathy toward our enemies.
