Snouts in the trough

Christopher Belshaw's call for "dispassionate, rational, evidence-based hard thinking" about animals and the natural world reminds me of calls to deal with the financial crisis with more deregulation, free markets and corporate power ("Deep ecology's pig in a poke", Books, 30 August). Good luck with that.
