End factory farms' antibiotics addiction

To Ministers of Agriculture and Health:

As citizens concerned about human health and animal welfare, we call on you to take urgent steps to ban the routine preventative use of antibiotics in livestock farming, and implement robust enforcement mechanisms. Your actions can save animals from suffering, save lives and save a vital tool of modern medicine.

End factory farms' antibiotics addiction
Cruel factory farms are pumping perfectly healthy animals full of antibiotics so that they can raise the fattest animals in the fastest, cheapest way.

They're creating drug-resistant superbugs that can make curable infections and even simple cuts deadly. The threat is so serious that even McDonald’s announced it'll start using some antibiotic free meat!

Six European countries have already slashed antibiotic use on farms, and the EU is considering laws to clamp down across the continent. But the farm lobby is out in full force to stop them in their tracks.

If enough of us make this threat a massive public issue, we can set a standard for the world with a victory in the EU, and then go country by country to win antibiotic free meat.

Let’s build a million strong call to save modern medicine. Sign now, then share with everyone.
