When you trace back where your food came from, you’ll find many footprints. By the time they get on your plate, some ingredients use a lot of water, emit greenhouse gases, afflict animals, and slaughter animals. For the energy to support you for 24 hours, how much resources are you using and causing suffering?

2020 was a turbulent year for animals as well. A huge number of animals were left behind to suffer. Still, many people became aware of the current states of the animals and shared videos showing them. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. We would like to express our sincere gratitude for many comments and reactions. We have collected videos that made people aware of people living in Japan in 2020. The contents of the videos (from Facebook, which has the longest history) are issues that haven’t been solved yet, so if you please share, comment, or let someone know, it will be a great help for the animals!…

On January 26, “March for Animals — Compassion for All Animals” was held in Tokyo. 326 people marched in Shibuya, Omotesando, and Harajuku, calling for compassion for all animals and eliminating animal suffering. This time was a new endeavor. To transform the society into one without animal suffering and one with compassion for animals, it was an event encouraging joining forces, instead of criticizing each other, to form opinions.

Interviews of participants It being in…
The chicks being raised for meat who end their short torturous lives while they are still babies. Breathing while shaking their bodies is an abnormal and critical condition for chickens. However, no treatment is performed in the poultry industry. In search of efficiency, they are being selectively bred way too much and are being raised in excessive concentration. There are many harmful effects. These harmful effects are not only on chickens but also on humans. Please support activities to eliminate the suffering of chickens. https://arcj.org/en/donate/
In 2018, it was unimaginable for a company to prioritize animal welfare in its procurement policies. No such policies existed at the time, and the idea of a company publicly acknowledging it as a key issue seemed far-fetched.

When we engage with companies that have yet to make public statements on this issue, we often highlight that they are falling behind their peers in Japan. The significant progress we’ve witnessed is a testament to our efforts in collaborating with businesses, financial institutions, and government entities, as well as the growing advocacy from…
