Knowledge: John Robbins- We Need to Honor Our Compassion


In this excerpt John Robbins discusses the cruel conditions found in factory farms and encourages us to take a stand for what we value. Recorded at World Vegetarian Day, San Francisco, 2009.


 "The more I learned about the way animals are treated in factory farms, the more frightened I was, because I knew I had to act. I knew I couldn't stay put, I couldn't remain complacent, I couldn't just turn away anymore. There was no place to turn away to. Everywhere I looked I saw it. Everywhere I was I felt it." - John Robbins
