DEBATE: Is eating meat healthy or ethical?

This debate took place on October 27, 2016 at Harvard University. John Mackey, co-founder and co-CEO of Whole Foods, and Bruce Friedrich, Executive Director of The Good Food Institute, will debate together on the resolution, "Eating Meat is Neither Ethical Nor Healthy.” Bruce and John will take the affirmative and two Harvard debaters – Dhruva Bhat (2017), and Danny DuBois (2018) – will argue the negative. The event will be followed by a Q&A with John and Bruce. Bruce Friedrich is the executive director of The Good Food Institute, which focuses on disputing animal agriculture by promoting plant-based and cultured alternatives. Bruce graduated magna cum laude, Order of the Coif, from the Georgetown University Law Center, and also holds degrees from Johns Hopkins University and the London School of Economics and Political Science. Bruce has held leadership roles for the past two decades at top non-profit organizations working against animal agriculture.
