Save Traditional Farming in the UK!
- af: Care2.com
- mottagare: UK Prime Minister David Cameron
A UK study has found that traditional farming methods are not only better for the farm animals themselves, but are also crucial for the survival of many threatened bird species.
The traditional--or "arable"--farms create ideal conditions for birds such as bustards, ibises, cranes, and vultures to build a habitat and breed in. Arable farms are also plentiful sources of food and shelter for these threatened birds.
Traditional arable farms are not only helping the animals, but the farmers as well. Industrial farms are steadily taking the place of these smaller farms, but by protecting biodiversity, farmers may be able to prevent themselves from being forced off their land.
Power is in the hands of the consumer, especially in this case. Pledge to save many threatened birds from facing extinction and keep traditional farms alive by supporting them over industrial farms. At the same time, let UK Prime Minister David Cameron know that arable farms need the government's support by signing this petition.
Dear Prime Minister David Cameron,
I am writing to express my deep concern for the declining number of traditional farms in the UK.

It has come to my attention that not only do traditional farms provide far more humane living conditions for animals than do industrial farms, but traditional farms also are critical in protecting many of the UK's threatened bird species. These farms make ideal habitats and breeding grounds for many bird species, and without them, they face extinction.
Traditional arable farms are not only helping the animals, but the farmers as well. Industrial farms are steadily taking the place of these smaller farms, but by protecting biodiversity, farmers may be able to prevent themselves from being forced off their land.
I, the undersigned, urge Parliament to support arable farming to better preserve the UK's rural and environmental state, which will benefit the entire UK populace.
Sincerely,
[Your name here]
