Pathways to animal futures: values, strategies and perspectives
While writing, reviewing and editing TABLE's explainer on Animal welfare ethics in food and agriculture, we were struck by the complex overlaps and divergences between the different groups involved. Why do activists, scientists and policymakers interested in charting a pathway to a better future for non-human animals so often disagree on the details?

Rewilding and its implications for agriculture
Where does rewilding sit in the future of food and agriculture? Rewilding is a contested term, described by some as laying a foundation for global biodiversity restoration and by others as a threat to human and non-human life in the countryside.
