Inhaltsangabe
In the past many large and small mammals have been domesticat-ed. The population has acquired immunity against the great epi-demics of the past. Zoonotic infections like the black plague, smallpox, tuberculosis, measles, typhoid and cholera could be treated with vaccination and antibiotics.Nowadays we have a new situation, caused by intensive farming. All meat of farmed mammals is only produced by manual insemination of cattle, pigs and rabbits. Mad cow disease, swine fever and bird flu are the result of intensive livestock farming. Since the fifties of the 20th century, intensive breeding in livestock has increased sharply. An increase that keeps pace with the recent increase in cancer mortality. Harmful viruses such as Avian (poultry) leukemia virus (ALV) and Bovine (cattle) leukemia virus (BLV) are found in raw egg proteins and meat products. Harmful leukemia viruses from cattle and poultry have spread to animal caretakers, employees in the meat and poultry industry and consumers.Global warming is largely the result of intensive livestock production. The pig used to be kept as a food reserve for the cold winter months. Hams and sausages etc. We have started to eat more meat without fruit and vegetables. The farmers can repurpose their stalls with a power plant for heat and LED lighting. Strawberries, mushrooms, peppers, lettuce, grapes and pineapples can now also be produced in winter. With local production with a greater supply and diversity, the supply of fruit and vegetables over the equator will decrease.
