Javed but hey see Gregory for more information

STRENGTHEN AND ENFORCE EXISTING ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS (324): Government fails once again to do its job.
-          Companies now self-regulate themselves
-          There are also no routine inspections. This leads to terrible working environment for workers. Mainly because, a company needs constant and routine inspections for them to maintain safer working environments and treat workers accordingly. Routine checkups
-           Keep companies aware that they are being monitored and need to maintain a certain standard at the workplace.
-         Government is not providing enough money to the right people, and towards the right places to enforce existing laws that protect both the environment and human health.


WAYS IN WHICH THE LAWS CAN BE STRENGHTEN & REINFORCED 3(25).
-          MORATORIUMS ON FACTORY FARMS( limiting harmful activities that take place)
-          A proper air pollution approach to ensure that the air that we breathe is not contaminated.
-          Of course treating sewage problems which can cause major land air and water pollution to the environment, destroying the homes of millions of animals, while sickening people.
-          Allocating funding to the right people for more appropriate reason.
-          Clean water- everyone needs clean water, diseases can be spread rapidly through water, and the home and lives of much sea life can be destroyed.
-          Regulating greenhouse gases causing. PUTTING A STOP TO THE IMMEDIATE CAUSE OF the harmful gases that penetrate our planet.

Javed & Gregory's findings!

THE VEGGIE LIBEL LAWS(320): The freedom of speech is diminished and food companies have the “right” to sue other companies and other individuals within the thirteen states(Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, North& South Dakota, Oklahoma, Ohio, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas.) due to the law that allows persons within these states to file lawsuits and sue others.  For example in a 1996 episode of Oprah’s talk show, she said “It has just stopped me cold from eating another burger” (Tomaselli, Niles 320). Stating her opinion on her talk show due to the way she felt she was hit with a lawsuit from a company.  Therefore, companies have more power over society than the government over its own people.

ENVIRONMENTAL LEGISLATION(322): Establishing a controlled ecological environment, while trying to manage air pollution levels and maintain and reduce the pollution within society due to the CAFO& factory farm system. Agriculture has become one of the main contributors to the climate change and creation of greenhouse gases. The result of the waste being produced by the animals, society is at stake.


CONNECTION BETWEEN TWO PASSAGES: Although the Factory Farming system is polluting the people along with the environment, the people have no right to protect themselves against the monstrosity. The government neither feels it mandatory to protect its people while completely ignoring the bill of rights.
