In a number of European countries (e.g., Spain, Italy, France, Portugal, Slovenia, Croatia, Poland), a portion of the pig sector is aimed at the production of traditional and certified products (e.g., PDO—Protected Designation of Origin, PGI—Protected Geographical Indication). Dry-cured ham is probably the most famous traditional pork product; however, typical pork products are produced in (and exported to) many countries worldwide. The meat used for producing these high-quality delicacies needs to be suitable for seasoning and dry-curing, and these characteristics are the result of complex interactions between the animal (breed, genotype, rearing condition, feeding regime, age and weigh...
This book presents cross-discipline studies covering aspects ranging from animal science to social/consumer sciences and psychology, with the aim to collect and disseminate information promoting the continuous enhancement of animal welfare by improving stakeholders’ perception of animal welfare. Although animal welfare is about how the animals perceive the surrounding environment, the actual welfare of the animals is dependent on how the stakeholders perceive and weigh animal welfare. The stakeholders can, either directly (i.e., through stock-people interaction with the animals) or indirectly (e.g., when retailers and consumers are willing to pay more for high welfare animal-based products), affect the way animals are kept and handled.
Contemporary and thought-provoking, this book provides a definition of the concept of One Welfare: the interconnection between animal welfare, human wellbeing and the environment. The book establishes a conceptual framework, in five sections, resulting from a three month global consultation on a draft proposal comprising nine areas. One Welfare complements the One Health and Eco Health approaches, enabling full integration of animal welfare within other disciplines; a much needed tool to help improve animal welfare, human wellbeing and environmental components and support worldwide sustainable development goals. Integrating this concept into existing projects could help to foster collaboration to improve human and animal welfare globally. This text is of interest to those working in the fields of animal and human welfare, sustainability and conservation, international development and to all those keen to extend the one health approach to animal welfare and human wellbeing.
Vegans, vegetarians, and meat eaters can feel like they’re living in different worlds. Many vegans and vegetarians struggle to feel understood and respected in a meat-eating culture, where some of their most pressing concerns and cherished beliefs are invisible, and where they are often met with defensiveness when they try to talk about the issue. They can become frustrated and struggle to feel connected with meat eaters. And meat eaters can feel disconnected from vegans and vegetarians whose beliefs they don’t fully understand and whose frustration may spill over into their interactions. The good news is that relationship and communication breakdown among vegans, vegetarians, and meat e...

Weganie, wegetarianie i mięsożercy mogą się czuć, jakby żyli w różnych światach. Wielu z nich walczy o zrozumienie i szacunek dla swoich wyborów. Kiedy jednak próbują o nich rozmawiać, często spotykają się z postawami obronnymi. Powoduje to frustrację, a ta odbija się na relacjach, które łączą ich z innymi. W rezultacie bliscy sobie ludzie – małżonkowie, partnerzy, przyjaciele, krewni – oddalają się siebie, bo nie wiedzą, jak poradzić sobie z dzielącymi ich różnicami. Dobra wiadomość jest taka, że rozpad relacji nie jest nieunikniony ani nieodwracalny. Wystarczą odpowiednie narzędzia, a będziemy mogli budować zdrowe więzi oraz naprawiać i wzmacnia...

即使「純素」是你基本的信念,但並不意味你只能和蔬食者在一起。 相反的,與那些有不同想法的人密切合作,更振奮人心。 當你保持開放與好奇心,用愛試著去理解其他人,將愛放在信念之前, 這份愛將能超越信念,讓你能更優雅且有智慧地經營各種關係, 進而與他人達成更令人滿意的溝通。 ***** 蔬食者和非蔬食者經常會覺得彼此生活在不同的世界, 然而兩者之間的關係和溝通破裂並非不可避免, 使用正確的工具,就可以培養、修復甚至加強健康的關係連結。 在現今社會中,許多蔬食者感受不到被理解和尊重, 他們...
