Do you think that we should EA activists should take a welfare approach to animal issues --- trying to improve the conditions on factory farms --- or instead an abolitionist, everyone should go vegan approach? The former seems the most popular approach in EA circles, but with increases in population and wealth leading to more meat consumption, I worry that any improvements would just be offset by more animals be abused and killed for food.
