Join the fight against factory-farm gas.

A new Mercy For Animals investigation exposes the dirty truth about factory-farm gas. The ag industry collects methane from animal waste—dubbing it “biogas”—for energy. But this gas reinforces factory farming and its severe environmental impacts, so let’s call it what it is: dirty factory-farm gas.

Despite all this, the USDA plans to allow the use of conservation funding from the recently passed Inflation Reduction Act to expand the dirty factory- farm gas industry. We must act now. Join us in urging the Biden administration to provide funding to help farmers transition to sustainable operations

Watch the investigation here.

Take a stand for the environment! Urge the Biden administration to make farm transitions eligible for IRA climate-smart funding.

Factory-farm gas is not climate-smart—instead it props up the current industrial system.
The drone footage also reveals another consequence of this industrialization of animal agriculture: thousands of animals forced to stand in their own excrement.
In the dairy industry, sentient individuals are treated as mere products. Standard practices include traumatically taking babies away from their mothers to lock them in crates.
