The bedroom is facing the factory farm, which is only 80 meters away. The smell and the noise is often intolerable, Eckhard reported to Greenpeace Nordic in Denmark. What frustrates the man the most is that he has a hard time sleeping because the pigs scream at night. Eckhard said: “It drives me crazy that the pigs’ screams wake me up again and again”.Locations:Baarup-Denmark-EuropeDate:14 Mar, 2019Credit:© Greenpeace / Wildlight / Selene MagnoliaMaximum size:5028px X 3771pxKeywords:Agriculture-Air pollution-Darkness-Factory Farming-Illness-Indoors-KWCI (GPI)-Local population-Meat-Meat and Dairy (campaign title)-Men-One person-Pigs-Sadness-VictimsShoot:Pig Factory Farms in DenmarkDenmark produces more than 31 million pigs annually, which, together with the annual production of 1.5 million cattles, makes up 19 percent of Denmark’s total greenhouse gas emissions. Inside the walls of industrial farms, animals’ existence are reduced to short lives inside small booths or cages. Besides its effect on the climate, meat production in Denmark further has a negative impact on the local environment, landscape, biodiversity and public health.Greenpeace Nordic in Denmark demands a reduction in the number of pigs and cattles produced by the meat industry in Denmark. The decrease in amount of agricultural land used for production of animal feed should simultaneously give space to more nature, forest and production of organic, plant-based crops. Furthermore, the public system has to contribute to a transition of the consumption of less meat and more green foods.Related Collections:Factory Farms in Europe - Full SelectionFactory Farms in Europe - Tight Edit
