Description

Welcome to the Sip Salon where we gather to learn together through articles and discussion. No experts, just curious folks coming together to discuss topics. Whether you know a little or a lot, we hope to grow together in our understandings. With drinks. 

This month, what are the true costs of the way we raise animals for food — not just in your grocery bill, but in public health, ethics, and the environment?

In this Sip Salon, we’ll take an interactive, discussion-based look at factory farming: how it came to be, why it persists, and what ethical and health implications it carries for animals and humans alike. Drawing on research from public health ethics, we’ll unpack:

  • how densely confined livestock create conditions that foster disease and antibiotic resistance,
  • the moral questions raised by industrial animal confinement,
  • the ways food production shapes communities and ecosystems,
  • and what it might take to shift toward more humane and health-centered systems.

This isn’t a lecture — it’s a conversation. Come ready to explore the complex trade-offs between affordable food, public well-being, and our values as a society. Bring your curiosity, your questions, and a drink in hand.
