The latest proposed restrictions come after the EU in 2021 banned plastic items such as straws and cutlery - and after the European P...

The ethical debate surrounding animal farming is taking on a new dimension after an international coalition of several dozen scientists signed a declaration putting forward at least a "realistic possibility" that animals have a consciousness.

These could include sensory experiences - such as a par...
