Science is bringing on a revolution in the relationship we have with animals

Quote:Plenty of research suggests that animals, from the chicken to the octopus, can feel in a similar way to humans. Despite our knowledge that animals have sentience, we continue to ignore this and allow for inhumane practices like branding to be done on animals.

It may seem as if few people think so now, but we are moving towards a better relationship with ‘lower’ creatures. Just look at the rising political representation that animals are gaining from parties like the Labour Party in the UK and The Party of the Animals in the Netherlands.

First, they are made mainly using paper; and second, instead of relying on lithium, these paper fuel cells use bodily fluids such as saliva and blood.
