Petting my cat in the morning, watching cute dog videos in the afternoon and eating meat from factory farms in the evening? What a strange way of life that would be.

Factory farming is inhumane. Period. We know that there is another way! So there are no reasons good enough to question the necessity of these changes.

I support the initiative because factory farming completely ignores the dignity of animals and is simply not an option.

The initiative is a step on the way to a sustainable food culture. It is also an opportunity for Swiss agriculture to position itself internationally.

There is no animal-friendly way of doing factory farming. This disrespect for animals should be abolished.

For animals, as creatures whose well-being interests all of us, a minimum standard as a social regulation is economically efficient and reasonable.

No animal should be caged, fattened and killed just so that people have meat on their plates.

Animals have almost everything we have: brains, the ability to suffer, a social life. But one thing they do not have – a voice. We must be their voice.

With this initiative we protect ourselves from climate collapse and from having to ask ourselves whether a few minutes of pleasure justify acting against any compassion towards living beings.

Factory farming can only exist behind closed doors. In the 21st century we can expect more from ourselves. It is time that we start living in harmony with our values!

I support the initiative to abolish factory farming in Switzerland with all my heart and with a clear mind. Factory farming no longer belongs in our time.

People change the environment in their favor. Factory farming is just one of the consequences of this. I hope it will soon be a thing of the past – for the benefit of all living beings.

There is no argument for industrial animal husbandry but there is an almost infinite number of arguments against it. We should use all means to resist the current system.

Nobody can support factory farming. I would be proud and relieved if, without exception, there were no more factory farms in Switzerland.

A society is defined by how it treats its animals and that is why we should support the initiative. It is long overdue.

Industrially produced meat from factory farming contradicts all ethical principles.

Keeping, using and killing animals is based on the principle of the right of the mighty one. Therefore, the initiative is an important step on the way to a more peaceful future.

Animal husbandry in Switzerland is becoming more and more intensive. While a house-cat has the right to retreat according to law, farmed animals may stand densely crowded in the dark.

Factory farming is cruelty to animals, and I don’t want to have anything to do with that. That is why I support the initiative to abolish factory farming.

Meat is considered a human right by most. But actually, it should be a duty to enable animals to live as naturally and stress-free as possible.

Factory farming should be abolished in Switzerland because animals are sensitive creatures and do not deserve to be reduced to a product.

No sunlight, no proximity, no life. We create a deep divide between humans and animals and we don’t question it because sausage tastes so good.
