Ep4: Bullshit: Greenwashing of Animal Agriculture

We discuss some instances of greenwashing (and humanewashing) including a viral ad campaign by Chipotle which included a game in which the player frees animals from a factory farm - all while Chipotle continues to serve animals raised on factory farms. We talk about motivated reasoning in terms of the humane hoax, as well as ways we fall short of our own values in areas other than veganism (like driving and flying).
