Answer:

The health of living organisms are being affected by the environmental degradation caused by climatic changes.

The process in which animals like cows, goats, pigs, cattles are reared to produce meat, dairy in largescale in factory is called Factory farming. Tens of thousand animals are kept in a narrow metal caged which affects their health as it spreads disease from one animal to other.

Use of injections various antibiotics to boost milk supply and making them pregnant forcefully are inhuman ways used in factory farming.

Factory farming produces huge quantity of waste and harmful gases triggering air pollution, land and water pollution which ultimately leads to climatic change and global warming.

Animal waste which produces 1 million tones of manure per day contaminates nearby water bodies , crops.

Methane which is a green house gas is emitted from cows and pigs. Use of antibiotics in animals to enhance dairy and meat products also contaminates crops, water as they come out undigested through their urine and manure.

Hence, just to get dairy and meat products in reasonable price we should not let this inhuman process go on. It is affecting environment , animal health and human health too.

Answer:

Inhumane farming methods degrade our ecosystem because there is a use of scientific methods for production of crops and animal products.

Animal products are eggs, milk, meat, etc.  

The use of more chemical products in the farm leads to the degradation of land. The dumping of industrial wastes directly into the river, when the water is separated for irrigation from the river it degrade the land.

Chemical experiment on animals such as giving them injections, additional hormones can degrade the quality.  

The study of such factors are important because it is useful to make the farmer aware of the things which could led him in harm's way. The proper knowledge is necessary to avoid the damage that could be done by the use of chemicals.

By spreading awareness people become motivated will eventually leave practicing inhuman farming
