Representatives from HSUS, ASPCA, and CIWF 'animal protection' organizations presently sit on the board of directors for the 'Global Animal Partnership', the group behind misleading 'animal welfare certified' labels at Whole Foods Markets. Unfortunately, these marketing buzzwords mean nothing for animals raised and killed for food.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\n

PETA:<\/strong> The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA), and Compassion in World Farming (CIWF) promote the factory farming industry. Representatives from these \u201canimal protection\u201d organizations presently sit on the board of directors for the Global Animal Partnership, the group behind misleading \u201canimal welfare certified\u201d labels at Whole Foods Markets. Unfortunately, these marketing buzzwords mean nothing for animals raised and killed for food…<\/em><\/p>\n

A PETA investigation into Sweet Stem Farm \u2014 which was certified by the Global Animal Partnership at the time \u2014 revealed that pigs were crammed into severely crowded sheds and had painful, bloody rectal prolapses.<\/em><\/p>\n

A separate PETA investigation into Plainville Farms\u2014which also was, at the time, Global Animal Partnership\u2013certified\u2014documented that workers there kicked, beat, and threw turkeys and left ailing birds to suffer without treatment. PETA\u2019s investigation resulted in former Plainville Farms workers being charged with six felonies and a total of 141 counts of cruelty to animals\u2014the largest number in any factory-farmed animal case in U.S. history. Ten former workers have been convicted so far…<\/em><\/p>\n

The Global Animal Partnership betrays animals by lying to consumers, falsely assuring them that its certifications mean that animals are being treated humanely. HSUS, the ASPCA, and CIWF continue to support this humane-washing scam in the misguided hope of changing it from the inside, even though other groups, including PETA and Farm Forward, have cut ties with the Global Animal Partnership and urged them to do the same…<\/em><\/p>\n

James Cromwell, star of Succession, informed HSUS that he had literally trashed his Lifetime Achievement Award to show his disgust at the organization\u2019s role in propping up factory farms.<\/em><\/p>\n

In a video released by PETA, Cromwell\u2014who received the award during the HSUS 60th Anniversary Gala in 2014\u2014says, \u201cAs much as I hate to do this, I\u2019m moving this award from my mantle to the only place it really deserves: the garbage. It saddens me. But it saddens me more to realize that HSUS is betraying the animals who depend on them for their protection”…<\/em><\/p>\n

PETA is placing 25 large \u201cDon\u2019t Trust The Label\u201d fly-posters near the ASPCA office in New York City and 15 large sidewalk decals near the HSUS office in Washington, D.C., the week of November 11 to increase the pressure on HSUS and the ASPCA to stop supporting factory farms…<\/em><\/p>\n

You can help end the humane-washing lies\u2014first, by going vegan, and second, by making sure these organizations know that you won\u2019t support them until they end all their factory-farm endorsements. SOURCE…<\/strong><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n
