Hi @Martina Pepiciello , these are awesome! Would it be okay if we used some of these in promotional materials for our EA Summit in Vancouver?
Really appreciate the clarity this thought reflects. And yeah FarmKind is definitely onto something IMHO! Getting people to buy what they want may take some of the analysis paralysis out of complex decisions (pay 20% more for higher-welfare eggs because of welfare? or taste?). This discussion is needed for us to move closer to the moral revolution that holds farmed animals within our moral circle.
I'm organizing an EA Summit in Vancouver, BC, for the fall and am looking for opportunities for our attendees to come away from the event with opportunities to look forward to. Most of our attendees will have Canadian but not US work authorization. Anyone willing to meet potential hires, mentees, research associates, funding applicants, etc., please get in touch!
Hey Amelia! Cool to see you out here. Excited for the Summit! Excited to see where you'll go with your talent and knowledge.
