Quote by Michael Pollan
For at the same time many people seem eager to extend the circle of our moral consideration to animals, in our factory farms and laboratories we are inflicting more suffering on more animals than at any time in history.
Summary
This quote highlights a paradoxical situation in our society. While there is a growing movement to expand our ethical concerns to include animals, the practices in industries such as factory farming and laboratories contradict this trend. These industries subject animals to immense suffering on a scale unprecedented in human history. The quote challenges us to reflect on our choices and the inconsistency between our moral progress towards animals outside these settings and the harsh realities faced by animals within them.
