It would be much better news if it read:
“Bali Zoo is closing permanently. Any animals capable of surviving in the wild will be rewilded, and the rest will go to reputable sanctuaries to live out their lives in peace and away from human exploitation.”
Better still if that read “all zoos are closing”

Bali Zoo has ended elephant rides!
Elephants are intelligent, social animals. Many scars come from being forced to perform or carry people. Animals are still exploited for tourism worldwide, but this is a step forward we should see everywhere.

We’ve all been taught to see some animals as family, while viewing others as food, entertainment, or objects. 🐶🐮
We must challenge that bias and recognise all animals for who they truly are: sentient beings worthy of respect. 🙏💚

Plant-based diets “can support healthy living at every age & life stage” (British Dietetic Association). Therefore,meat is a luxury that should be taxed at the same level of VAT as other luxuries.
‘Meat tax’ could have significant impact on environmental footprint, study finds
Full VAT on meat products could cost EU households as little as €26 a year but cut impact by 3-6%, says paper

Vegetarians, you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how good it feels to ditch the mental gymnastics one has to use to justify supporting the dairy and egg industries. Many (most?) vegans started as vegetarians, including me. I went vegan the moment I learned about dairy and eggs...best decision ever.

ALL animal testing belongs in the septic tank of history. It’s bad ”science”, if you can even call it science at all.

Cancer warnings should be on all animal products that are known carcinogens, not only in the UK but worldwide, just as they’re required on cigarettes. Proof that the animal ag industry owns legislatures. Families of people who die from disease caused by animal products should be told the root cause.

For all those who are opposed to immigration, let them understand that the UK has always had immigrants, and people were emigrating too. In the 1861 census of Liverpool, 50% of the population were immigrants.

It’s sad that so many people either can’t grasp the concept or just don’t care, but all life is intertwined and interdependent. Humans in their arrogance are responsible for the extinction of thousands of species each year, tearing at the very fabric of life itself.

Another own goal by the Daily Heil, perhaps they could break the habits of a lifetime and report - facts. 🤔
Daily Mail confused again.
Not uncomfortable supporting women in Iran or calling out the regime’s digital blackout.
What is uncomfortable is the hypocrisy of those supporting genocide in Gaza while pretending to be champions of human rights.
Silent when journalists are banned.
