中美工业化畜牧业:监管路径及机遇
2023年6月23日(周五)美东时间晚8-10点
2023年6月24日(周六)北京时间早8-10点
The U.S.-Asia Partnerships for Environmental Law and the Animal Law and Policy Institute at Vermont Law and Graduate School and Koguan School of Law at Shanghai Jiaotong University have partnered on a year-long project to examine the local and global impacts of factory farming. The project involves collaborations between students, faculty, and subject-matter experts from around the world through research seminars and webinars that will result in a legislative proposal.
Industrial animal agriculture has devastating impacts on the environment, public health, and animal welfare, and has largely eluded legal oversight. This panel will lay out potential policy frameworks and pragmatic opportunities for oversight of industrial animal agriculture to address these impacts in the United States and China.
一年前,佛蒙特法律与研究生学院的亚美环境法研究中心、动物法及政策研究所联合上海交通大学的凯原法学院发起了针对工业化畜牧业在全球及当地的影响研究。 项目集结了一批来自全球的学生、老师及行业专家开展专题研究,通过网络会议及研究讨论产生立法建议。
工业业化畜牧业对环境、公共健康和动物福利有着破坏性的影响,并且很大程度上躲避了法律的监督。专家组将围绕美国及中国在如何监管产业化畜牧业、降低负面影响的方面提出潜在的政策框架及实际运用的机会。
