FARMAGEDDON - Silent Spring - Introduction |
|
Silent Spring - the book that launched the environmental movement.
On the 50th anniversary of Rachel Carson's death, author of Silent Spring, Philip travels to her childhood home in Pennsylvania to learn more about 'the mother of the environmental movement' and how everything she said more than 50 years ago is true today. Over a three-year period Philip Lymbery (CEO of Compassion in World Farming) has travelled the world bearing witness to the hidden cost of cheap meat and the devastating impact of factory farming -- on people, animals and our planet. The findings of this journey are brought together for the very first time in Farmageddon (published by Bloomsbury). Farmageddon is now available to order online and in all good bookshops. |
