Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Utilitarians believe in maximizing overall well-being and minimizing suffering. They would therefore likely oppose factory farming which causes significant suffering to animals, as well as the environmental and health risks associated with it. They may also advocate for animal welfare measures to improve the well-being of animals used for food production. However, their focus on human well-being may lead some utilitarians to prioritize human medical research over animal welfare concerns.
