The Role of Scientists in the Debate About Animal Welfare

Thank you for this talk more scientists need to speak out.

Hello Yuval! totally agree with your views on humanity and the welfare of all sentient and conscience life. In fact, I've written a few stories notably; Martha the Cow, depicting the feelings from birth onward with a sliding scale of anthropomorphic language to put into context the feeling of a mammal like a dairy cow. Please give it a review when you have some time. Jack Baret

I also use my pen name Angelo Zuccaro to write Martha the Cow and other short stories.

Beautiful message! I was very glad to hear he was vegan 🌱

Thank you, for your words 💚🌱

No more scientists, they’ve done enough damage,

Humans do not feel compassion neither do they understand the misery of others in general. Concerning animals is even worse. They believe in a 'fantastic' superiority that does have correspondence in this Universe. Many more times they prefer to ignore the issue as pleasure is stronger than any other factor. The case is not an easy one. Being primitive doesn' t pay off in the end. Then who should decide, apart from the help of honest scientists? Should animals remain in this misery because humans are primitive and ignorant? No! Not at all. It shouldn't be their decision. They do not have any moral authority to stop or otherwise to continue with this horror. 🗡️👽

We love you Yuval <3

Let’s go beyond “welfare” and discuss “animal rights”.

We agree that laws protecting domestic animals are just. Why do we ignore the ethical bankruptcy in animal agriculture?

Somebody had to say it ! thank you Yuval !

Beautifully explained

We don't need science to confirm what our Hearts tell us...No outside authority like man made science or man made politics are needed to confirm what we feel if we put ourselves in the position of another being to know what is Right.....to hell with man made authorities....enough

A very inspiring speech, while I find the idea that every bite of beef or every box of milk is produced in an inhumane way is really hard to accept, considering how much I love beef steak and latte. Admitted I am trying to avoid thinking about those poor animals and continue finishing my breakfast.

Well said!

All those watching this video should watch Phillip Wollen, the modern day champion of animal rights.

齋 齋 齋

I should be more grateful to the animals when i eat meat or drink milk.

Cows cry tears for days when their calves are ripped from them to be murdered. Sensitive and feeling animals deserve better

Thank you to BEE on this planet

🌎🌱💚✨🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

When I try to imagine what the Buddha was like, you are the closest embodiment I can think of. Thank you for speaking for the animals.

Vegan for life 💋🙏

So why all the censorship of scientists then?

Big fan of yours Yuval! Keep watching your videos. Love your way of simplifying things . Only have a question here- since trees and plants have a life too, why they don’t have emotions? And even if they don’t have emotions, isn’t it a fact that they have a life and no one can survive on something which doesn’t have life? Keeping that aside I am working hard to be a vegan at least for as many days as possible!

I got good arguments to justify my racism

what if I don't care about animal welfare? or about the pain the animals feel?
I don't care if it is sad, scared or in pain

Couldn’t agree more.

Is it okay to eat eggs if you own your own chickens and give them a nice life. It would save on air miles, and they are a substantial protein.

Thank You! If we give up: personality, state borders, armies then we will live peacefully and well?

Sir Noah, thanks so much..learn so much from your speech.

Thank you this should be translated to Arabic

Scientists usually advocates on the topics of their funding interest or personal gain.

What a classic peace of oratory...! Absolutely remarkable.

Amazing explanation and points. As an animal activist, I’m overwhelmed with how ignorant people can be in relation to the science of sentience and animals. Sometimes I wonder if it’s true ignorance or just willing ignorance, knowing that the reality is much more horrible that they wanna think.
Thank you for using your voice for this very important and ignored moral problem, probably the biggest moral atrocity of our time.

Homo Sapiens are lost!

Thanks for great insight. You are a pioneer of 21th century. I want to be a vet for improving animal welfare and you have given me a reason for why I should consider animal welfare. I have a question. According to your opinion, should we be vegan? How to solve current animal welfare problems? What position should I stand for?

Can someone please tell me the name of the plant we see on the left of the screen ? Does anyone know ?

Thank you Harari, you are a very beautiful person.

What happen to our body or our soul if we eat suffering animal ?

Finally! Thank you!

This is why I admire people fighing for animal rights - not only Yuval Noah Harari, but also Sylwia Spurek, a politician representing Poland in the European Parliament, or Peter Singer, a philosopher from Australia, animals are treated like slaves by our human population

Love to see a voice for the animals and especially from a historians point of view with facts, amazing arguments! We need a vegan world for the animal suffering to end.

Questões éticas sobre a defesa dos animais devem ser defendidas por cientistas e líderes governistas.

I have seen cows and dogs and birds shedding tears for their offspring. Thanks a lot 🙏

no person like yuval great human spreading wisdom and light thank you...

I am soooo happy he's a vegan! I had no idea that this intellectual human is there with us.

Excelente! Just a point... if you observe a dog in some situations, you can see that they do feel guilty!

Is it an obligation for the educated to teach the ignorant?

Occupying Palestine putting people in jails and torturing them and giving speeches about suffering !?!

Your clarity of presentation on Animal welfare confirms your suspicions of our Amoral society as stupid
