CAFO Articles

Take some time to read about Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) in North Carolina.

I. Below we’ve shared some of our favorites published by the Waterkeeper Alliance, as well as some op-eds by Cape Fear Riverkeeper Kemp Burdette and other North Carolina Riverkeepers.

II. For an Introduction: WHAT IS A CAFO and a little recent history: Check out the CFRW blog HERE

III. Check out the Environmental Working Groups map of the POULTRY FARM EXPLOSION in North Carolina. These facilities do not require ANY permitting, nor do they have to disclose their locations to the public!!  Click HERE
