I am one of two guests on this week's episode of the podcast Our Henhouse. I joined co-hosts Mariann Sullivan and Jasmin Singer to discuss a(nother) recent NY Times article, this one about how Anthropic is now concerned about "AI welfare." Listen on your favorite platform or here 👇
Industry News - AM China tariffs halt U.S. red meat trade, risking billions: USMEF By Chris Moore on 4/28/2025 Retaliatory tariffs from China have effectively halted U.S. beef and pork exports, according to the U.S. Meat Export Federation (USMEF). USMEF Vice President of Economic Analysis Erin Borror said China’s effective duty rate on U.S. pork and pork variety meats has reached 172%, while U.S. beef and beef variety meats are facing a 147% tariff. She warned that losing access to China puts more than $150 per fed steer or heifer at risk and could cost the pork industry about $8 to $10 per head in export value. "There's a mad scramble to find new homes for products specifically produced and labeled for China," Borror said. "Without China's demand, we’re looking at industry losses of about $4 billion annually for beef and $1 billion for pork." Borror added that China is a unique market, purchasing specific beef and pork items at premiums other buyers are unwilling to match. Products like short plate, rib fingers, pork feet and intestines are particularly difficult to reroute to other destinations. Adding to the challenge, China has failed to renew export registrations for about 400 U.S. beef facilities and nine pork plants, further restricting shipments. Borror emphasized that even if tariffs are lifted, the lack of renewed facility approvals would continue to block most U.S. red meat exports to China.
Trump's trade war with China might accidentally crush the US beef and pork industries.

Animal ag was never ethical—but industrialization scaled it into a leading driver of climate collapse, deforestation, and water waste. Whatever small-scale systems once existed, the reality now is mass harm to animals, people, and the planet. We don’t need to rely on it anymore.
'We'd recognize that they're focusing on a crucial issue that needs urgent attention. And the same should apply to animal advocacy.' - @jasminsinger.com dropping truth in this week's #ThoughtsFromOurHenHouse 🎧

A study summary states that fresh odour samples were evaluated for pleasantness, attractiveness, masculinity, and intensity by 30 women not using hormonal contraceptives. The same procedure was repeated a month later, with the donors on opposite diets. Results showed that odours from a non-meat diet were rated as significantly more attractive, pleasant, and less intense than those from a meat-based diet, suggesting red meat consumption negatively impacts perceived body odour.

"The small, everyday deeds of ordinary folk keep the darkness at bay..." Listen to @jasminsinger.com and @marisul.bsky.social discuss this powerful Tolkien quote and what it means for animal activism in 2025. A hopeful moment from this week's episode. ourhenhouse.org/ep782
"Direct action is a form of resistance that, in its structure, is meant to prefigure the genuinely free society one wishes to create. Revolutionary action is not a form of self-sacrifice, a grim dedication to doing whatever it takes to achieve a future world of freedom. It is the defiant insistence on acting as if one is already free." . - David Graeber
In 2007, David Graeber wrote "On the Phenomenology of Giant Puppets" about the Global Justice movement and the protests against the policies of the IMF, WTO & World Bank.
This quote comes from that piece!
On a white and purple background, the title "Meet the Neighbors" appears above a portrait photo of Brandon Keim wearing a brown beanie and gray shirt, smiling warmly at the camera.
