A presentation by Bruce Friedrich (PETA).
We all love animals, care about global poverty, want to conserve resources, and minimize our carbon footprint. In this provocative talk, long-time peace and social justice advocate Bruce Friedrich will apply Socrates${q} admonition that "the unexamined life is not worth living" to our food choices, examining recent science around the global food crisis, aglobal warming, nutrition, and animal sentience.
Bruce Friedrich is vice president of campaigns for PETA, the world${q}s largest animal rights organization. Bruce has appeared on The Today Show, Hardball, The O${q}Reilly Factor, and most other cable news shows and has been interviewed repeatedly by all of the United States${q} most influential newspapers. Before joining PETA 12 years ago, Bruce spent six years running a shelter for homeless families and the largest soup kitchen in Washington, D.C.
