65,000 signatures delivered to Swedish parliament calling for ban on Frankenchickens
Today, Project 1882 delivered more than 65,000 signatures to Members of the Swedish Parliament, calling for a national ban on Frankenchickens. The handover took place together with a protest for the chickens outside the Swedish Parliament.
Sweden to ban fur farming – “At last!”
The Swedish inquiry on fur farming was published today, and it contains a clear proposal on how a ban should be introduced in Sweden. Project 1882 welcomes this development and urges the government to bring forward the legislation without delay.
EU legislation on dogs and cats approved by the European Parliament
The European Parliament has now adopted common EU rules on the welfare and traceability of dogs and cats. The decision marks a historic step forward for millions of animals – yet the legislation still leaves some animals without protection.
Reduced consumption of chickens in Sweden 2025 – 4.8 million lives saved
New statistics from the Swedish Board of Agriculture show a decline in meat consumption. Project 1882 has converted this into number of individual animals and is pleased to report that the number of animals killed has also decreased. A sign that more people are choosing not to eat chickens. The decline in meat consumption has saved approximately 4.8 million chickens in 2025 compared to the previous year.
