The Coco 1 art object and sculpture is intended to draw people’s attention to the consumption of chickens. I want to cite a few facts about the harm of such a consumer choice.
Farmed chickens are often raised in conditions that use antibiotics and hormones for rapid growth, which is considered unethical to both humans and the chickens themselves, as overtime growth causes pain to the birds.
Second, it is high in saturated fat, especially in fried or processed chicken, which can lead to cardiovascular problems and obesity.
Eating undercooked or raw chicken can cause contamination with bacteria such as salmonella or campylobacter.
Intensive chicken farming contributes to environmental pollution, because it requires a lot of water, land, and also produces a lot of waste.
These facts indicate the need for a conscious approach to the consumption of chickens.
