Here Bente is collecting her bedsheets from the hanger in the garden. According to her, she can only very rarely dry her laundry outside. Often, an awful smell is hanging in the air.Bente said: “When we moved here 32 years ago, the farm was very small with only a few animals. Now it is a factory farm with thousands of animals, and the smell, noise and dust from the stables drive us crazy.”Locations:Baarup-Denmark-EuropeDate:14 Mar, 2019Credit:© Greenpeace / Wildlight / Selene MagnoliaMaximum size:5184px X 3888pxKeywords:Agriculture-Air pollution-Factory Farming-KWCI (GPI)-Local population-Meat-Meat and Dairy (campaign title)-One person-Outdoors-Pigs-Victims-WomenShoot: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
