Future Perfect, Vox’s section dedicated to solving the world’s most important yet neglected problems, obsessively covers how the way we eat affects our lives and our planet. For the last year, we’ve been working hard on a special series of ambitious, deeply reported feature stories and investigations on the history of the meat and dairy industries, their political and cultural influence, and their sweeping impacts on American life, particularly in the Midwest, where factory farms are disproportionately concentrated.
The stories in this series are supported by Animal Charity Evaluators, which received a grant from Builders Initiative. To read more work supported by this grant, check out Vox’s series How Factory Farming Ends.
