Hog farms: The human and environmental effects of getting food to our tables

This week we bring you an in-depth discussion on a hot topic: the human and environmental impacts of hog farming in North Carolina. Our host Lindsey Wilson will be in conversation with Will Burnett, whose op-ed on the subject, published in our NC Talks series, has spurred discussion among our readership. It's not just about understanding the dynamics of hog farming; we'll also delve into Burnett’s personal reasons for critically examining the hog industry.

Here's a sneak peek at some of the questions on our list:

• How do hog farming practices impact both animals and people?
• Are there consumer-friendly alternatives to large-scale farming operations?
• Why is it crucial for community members to contribute op-eds and partake in the dialogue at CPP?
