Animal Welfare

Picture
   
Animal welfare means refers to how an animal is lives so that it is healthy, comfortable, well nourished, safe, able to express innate behavior, and is NOT suffering from unpleasant states such as pain, fear, or distress.

Everyone "votes" every day for or against animal welfare by the food they eat and purchases they make.

Be a conscious thoughtful consumer of products that are produced by companies that place a priority on animal welfare.
​

We agree with the 2016 Green Party Platform:

"Cruelty to animals is repugnant and criminal. The mark of a humane and civilized society lies in how we treat the least protected among us. To extend rights to other sentient, living beings is our responsibility and a mark of our place among all of creation. We call for an intelligent, compassionate approach to the treatment of animals.

We reject the belief that our species is the center of creation, and that other life forms exist only for our use and enjoyment. Our species does not have the right to exploit and inflict violence on other creatures simply because we have the desire and power to do so. Our ethic upholds not only the value of biological diversity and the integrity and continuity of species, but also the value of individual lives and the interest of individual animals.

The Green Party advocates humane treatment of animals with the following policies:"
  1. "Redirect the funds that are disbursed annually by the National Institutes of Health away from animal experiments and more towards direct health care, preventive medicine, and biomedical research using non-animal procedures such as clinical, epidemiological, and cell culture research.
  2. Phase out the use of animals for consumer product testing, tobacco and alcohol testing, psychological testing, classroom demonstrations and dissections, weapons development and other military programs.
  3. Mandate clear labeling of products to tell whether or not they have been tested on animals and if they contain any animal products or by-products.
  4. Establish procedures to develop greater public scrutiny of all animal research. These should include the welfare of laboratory animals, and a halt to wasteful public funding of unnecessary research such as duplicative experiments.
  5. End the abuse of animals, including farm animals, and strengthen our enforcement of existing laws.
  6. Ban the use of goods produced from exotic or endangered animals.
  7. Prohibit large scale commercial breeding facilities, such as “puppy mills,” because of the massive suffering, overpopulation, and ill health such facilities produce.
  8. Subsidize spay and neuter clinics to combat the ever-worsening pet overpopulation problem that results in the killing of millions of animals every year. Where unwanted companion animals are being killed in shelters, we advocate mandatory spay and neuter laws.
  9. Ban the exploitation of animals in violent entertainment and sports."

CONTROL:
The regulations ensuring the welfare of farm animals, animals used in scientific research, and animals in many other situations is clearly inadequate. Basic standards need to be improved.
FREEDOM:
The profits generated by businesses must be secondary to the welfare of the animals used by those businesses.  No one should be given the liberty to abuse animals or raise them in such horrible conditions.
CHANGE:
There is absolutely no reason why millions of animals should be treated so badly. There is no technological reason why their living conditions cannot be vastly improved. The only reason that they are treated so poorly is greed. We can certainly make progress on this issue. The way animals are treated in this country needs to change.
TRADITION:
​The treatment of animals that has been traditionally seen as acceptable and normal is actually shameful and disgusting. The status quo is that animal welfare has traditionally been ignored, and they way this has always been is not something to be proud of, is something of which we should all be ashamed.
   
ORGANIZATIONS:
https://awionline.org/
We seek better treatment of animals everywhere — in the laboratory, on the farm, in commerce, at home, and in the wild.
