Egg Farmers Of Alberta Publishes 2015 Sustainability Report

The Egg Farmers of Alberta (EFA) announced the publication of its 2015 Sustainability Report (available at www.eggs.ab.ca). EFA has continued to work with stakeholders to build a sustainable egg industry in Alberta, and took that commitment and pioneering spirit to a new level in 2015.
 
EFA’s 2015 Sustainability Report builds on the momentum from the publication of their inaugural Sustainability Report last year. In addition to expanding the amount and variety of metrics being reported on, this year’s Sustainability Report takes a more forward-looking approach, replacing the historic timeline of achievements with a number of progressive targets.
 
“Last year’s report set the stage by telling the story of where we’ve come from,” says Susan Gal, general manager, EFA. “This year’s report is more about telling the story of where we want to go as an industry, by detailing our forward-thinking commitments under each of our four pillars in a transparent and accountable manner.”
 
Sustainable egg production is at the heart of EFA’s sustainability strategy, which Alberta’s egg farmers have defined as being socially responsible, environmentally sound, and economically viable. EFA’s 2015 Sustainability Report is intended to be the annual report card for the organization and for their farmers, industry, and consumers.

In World Without Cows, journalists Michelle Michael and Brandon Whitworth take viewers on a global journey to explore the essential role of cattle in agriculture, food systems, and rural economies. Through interviews with farmers, ranchers, and environmental scientists, the documentary challenges the growing wave of misinformation surrounding cattle and climate change.

Prompted by the rise of unscientific narratives that paint livestock in a negative light, Michael and Whitworth set out to tell a more balanced story—one rooted in evidence and lived experience. The film highlights the cultural significance of cows, their contribution to global nutrition, and the innovations within the industry aimed at reducing environmental impact.

World Without Cows is a compelling reminder of the complexity and importance of livestock in a sustainable future.
