Beyond Factory Farming applies key insights from Laudato Si’ to specific issues of factory farming and ethical eating. The book offers a theological critique of factory farming. It also offers a constructive reflection on a wide range of ethical approaches to eating, attentive to their spiritual, environmental, social justice, and animal justice dimensions. While this project is rooted in the soil of Catholic ecotheology, it also extends into comparative engagement with the insights of a range of religious traditions.
