Woman Living in Tingerup Collects Articles about Factory Farming, Denmark
Annette Palshoej has collected many articles about the factory farms and the substances released by them, like ammonia. Annette has lived for 33 years right in between the three intensive pig farms Edelgundegaard, Vandvaerksgaarden and Bolettesminde. Since then, according to her, the smell has constantly worsened and is especially severe when the manure is spread, or when the stables are being ventilated. Annette says: “In a way you get used to the smell, but visitors notice it immediately. It is a nauseating smell, and it makes me feel sick.”

Pig Factory Farms in Denmark
Denmark produces more than 31 million pigs annually, which, together with the annual production of 1.5 million cattles, makes up 19 percent of Denmark’s total greenhouse gas emissions. Inside the walls of industrial farms, animals’ existence are reduced to short lives inside small booths or cages. Besides its effect on the climate, meat production in Denmark further has a negative impact on the local environment, landscape, biodiversity and public health.
Greenpeace Nordic in Denmark demands a reduction in the number of pigs and cattles produced by the meat industry in Denmark. The decrease in amount of agricultural land used for production of animal feed should simultaneously give space to more nature, forest and production of organic, plant-based crops. Furthermore, the public system has to contribute to a transition of the consumption of less meat and more green foods.
