{{talk|A little nuance here: Let's say, for the sake of argument, that some kinds of animal testing are a "necessary evil". Even so, we should avoid excessive redundancy. For example: When all the ingredients in a product have already been tested on animals decades ago, is it really necessary to test the product itself? And with each tiny change to the product, more testing | {{talk|A little nuance here: Let's say, for the sake of argument, that some kinds of animal testing are a "necessary evil". Even so, we should avoid excessive redundancy. For example: When all the ingredients in a product have already been tested on animals decades ago, is it really necessary to test the product itself the same way? And with each tiny change to the product, more testing on more animals? In general, I would say no - and I think the status quo leans towards too much of this kind of redundant animal testing. Change is needed - we need very specific campaigns. TODO: Let's figure out how to present this concept.}} | ||
