AMSA & Industry Events
Environmental Sustainability of Raising Meat Animals
Join us as Drs. Peter Ballerstedt and Sara Place discuss the challenges for the balanced attribution of livestock's environmental impacts, a feature article in the April 2023 Animal Frontiers Journal!
AMSA is pleased to continue to share the information presented at The Societal Role of Meat-What the Science Says. The publication of proceedings has been published in Animal Frontiers, a webinar series is being offered to further share the information and outcomes featuring speakers/authors at that event.
The third and final webinar features Drs. Peter Ballerstedt and Sara Place. Previous webinars can be found on our website here.
Additionally, we remind you to consider signing the Dublin Declaration of Scientists https://www.dublin-declaration.org/ as we are approaching the 1000-signature mark. Plans are underway for a second International Summit in 2024.
