LONDON, Nov 11, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - A new study in Animals highlights that industrialized animal farming is one of the most powerful - yet persistently neglected - forces driving the climate and biodiversity crises. The analysis, "The Missing Target: Why Industrialized Animal Farming Must Be at the Core of the Climate Agenda," synthesizes evidence from 47 international studies and concludes that reducing livestock production and embracing plant-based food systems is essential for meeting global climate goals.Major InsightsAcross global research, livestock farming contributes an estimated 12-20% of all greenhouse gas emissions annually, with the most comprehensive studies yielding the highest figures.The most modern accounting methods, which include the impacts of deforestation, bottom trawling and cooling effects from certain atmospheric pollutants, reveal that 52% of present-day global warming is attributable to animal agriculture.Animal agriculture occupies over 80% of agricultural land, while providing only 18% of calories and 37% of protein consumed worldwide, making it difficult to meet the needs of a fast-growing future population.Among other food-originating environmental impacts, the sector also creates 50% of eutrophication and 32% of soil acidification.Rapidly developing regions including emerging economies are projected to experience the sharpest growth in livestock emissions unless production trends shift.Biodiversity studies reveal that meat-heavy diets can create three to four times greater biodiversity losses compared to predominantly plant-based diets.Why a Plant-Based Shift MattersThe analysis makes a compelling environmental case for dietary change. Transitioning toward plant-forward eating patterns would drastically cut greenhouse gas emissions, reduce pressure on forests and freshwater systems, and curb nutrient pollution from feed crops and manure. Such a shift would not only mitigate climate impacts but also help restore ecosystems and safeguard wildlife.Implications for PolicymakersThe authors urge that global climate frameworks-such as climate summits and national plans under the Paris Agreement-must integrate clear targets for reducing animal-product production and consumption. Without tackling this sector, the chances of limiting global warming to well below 2°C (let alone 1.5°C) are significantly compromised.To be effective and fair, the analysis stresses, solutions must also consider regional realities. In developing economies, dietary transitions should align with food security, cultural preferences, and equitable livelihoods for farmers.A Turning Point for Food and Climate"The time is long overdue for greater attention on animal agriculture at key climate and environmental policy-making events such as COP30" stated lead author Jenny Mace. "It would be incredibly difficult to achieve climate and other sustainability targets without a significant downsizing of animal agriculture."Stated co-author veterinary Professor Andrew Knight, "Industrial livestock farming represents a critical blind spot in global climate policy. However, placing food system reform - particularly the reduction of animal-based products - at the centre of climate action could unlock enormous benefits for both people and the planet."Co-author Fernanda Vieira of Sinergia Animal commented that, "Industrial-scale farms are a profound driver of biodiversity loss, deforestation, climate change, and the emergence of zoonotic diseases. If we fail to confront these interconnected issues, the prospect of achieving meaningful progress toward our climate, health, and sustainability goals will remain out of reach."FURTHER INFORMATION:Jenny MaceCentre for Ethics, Philosophy and Public Affairs, University of St Andrews, UKjm609@st-andrews.ac.ukProf. Andrew KnightSchool of Environment and Science, Griffth University, Australiaandrewknightvet@gmail.comSOURCE: Sustainable Pet Food Foundation Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

HONG KONG, Nov 11, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Recently, the Bright China 2025 Clear Vision China Myopia Prevention and Control Conference & International Myopia Symposium was held in Shanghai. During the conference, on October 26, Airdoc jointly organized a satellite session themed "Clinical Research and Prospects of PBM(R) Photobiomodulation" with several authoritative experts. At the session, clinical research data on the application of Airdoc's PBM(R) Vision Rehabilitation Device was released, with the aim of promoting the high-quality development of myopia prevention and control endeavors and assisting in achieving the national strategic goals for myopia prevention and control health.At the "Lighthouse - Standards and Guidelines" thematic seminar, Professor Zou Haidong from the Shanghai Eye Disease Prevention and Treatment Center introduced the clinical trial progress of the Airdoc PBM(R) Vision Rehabilitation Device. Professor Zou mentioned, "The currently ongoing clinical trial data shows that, compared with a placebo, the application of the Airdoc PBM(R) Vision Rehabilitation Device can effectively control the myopic shift in axial length and refractive power."Meanwhile, the satellite session themed "Clinical Research and Prospects of PBM(R) Photobiomodulation" was jointly chaired by Professor Wang Xiaojuan from Shanghai First People's Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, and Professor Yu Jun from Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. At the session, Professor He Xiangui from the Shanghai Eye Disease Prevention and Treatment Center, Professor Liu Hong from Shanghai Children's Medical Center, and Professor Chen Zhijun from Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University delivered wonderful thematic reports, providing in-depth analyses of the groundbreaking progress of PBM photobiomodulation technology in the field of myopia prevention and control.Bright China 2025 | Moderators of Airdoc's Satellite Session: Professor Wang Xiaojuan (Left) and Professor Yu Jun (Right)Clinical Research Data on the Solo Application of Airdoc PBM(R) Vision Rehabilitation DeviceProfessor He Xiangui from the Shanghai Eye Disease Prevention and Treatment Center pointed out that although there are currently multiple myopia prevention and control methods in clinical practice, significant individual differences exist among children and adolescents. Some children respond poorly to conventional intervention measures, and there is an urgent need to explore more precise and personalized supplementary solutions. Against this backdrop, PBM photobiomodulation technology, with its advantages of being non-invasive, highly safe, and highly synergistic, has become a research hotspot and an important option in clinical practice.The Shanghai Eye Disease Prevention and Treatment Center conducted a single-center, randomized controlled pilot study titled "LED Red Light for Controlling Myopia Progression." The study included 40 children aged 8 to 12 with simple myopia, who were divided into an intervention group and a control group, with 20 participants in each group. The intervention group received irradiation from the Airdoc PBM(R) Vision Rehabilitation Device (2 sessions per day, 3 minutes per session), while the control group was subjected to extremely low-dose irradiation (0.001 mW, simulating a placebo).The pilot study data revealed that, over a 3-month period, the average axial length changes in the intervention group were as follows: right eye, -0.002 mm; left eye, -0.019 mm. In the control group, the axial length changes were: right eye, +0.059 mm; left eye, +0.075 mm.The change in diopters over the 3-month period for the intervention group was: +0.12D for the right eye and +0.15D for the left eye. For the control group, the average change was: -0.08D for the right eye and -0.13D for the left eye.Compared with the control group, the myopic shift in both axial length and diopter was significantly slowed down in the intervention group. Moreover, up to 85% of participants in the intervention group maintained or improved their vision, which was higher than the 50% in the control group, indicating a higher rate of visual stability. Additionally, there were no serious adverse events, and the compliance was good.Synergistic Enhancement Effect Achieved by Combining Airdoc PBM(R) Vision Rehabilitation Device with Defocus LensesProfessor Liu Hong from Shanghai Children's Medical Center pointed out in her report titled "Research on the Application of Photobiomodulation in Myopia Control" that myopia prevention and control pose a significant challenge worldwide, and ensuring both safety and efficacy is of utmost importance.Currently, the PBM technology applied for myopia prevention and control in China has undergone five iterations. The LED light source technology has also evolved from small LED light spots to the globally advanced PBM-LED(R) annular light spot technology [1]. This technology not only avoids the foveal region of the retina's macula but also safeguards children's clear vision in a safer and more effective manner.Professor Liu Hong presented the preliminary clinical data from a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial currently underway at Shanghai Children's Medical Center. The results demonstrated that after three months of treatment combining defocus lenses with the Airdoc PBM(R) Vision Rehabilitation Device, the effective control rates of axial length elongation reached 80% for the right eye and 84% for the left eye. Compared to using defocus lenses alone, this represented a 29% improvement for the right eye and a 47% improvement for the left eye. The preliminary findings indicate that a combined myopia prevention and control approach can achieve a "synergistic enhancement" effect in children and adolescents.PBM Targeting ipRGC Cells: Unlocking New Keys to Myopia Prevention and Control from the Perspective of Brain ScienceProfessor Chen Zhijun from Children's Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University stated, "PBM targeting ipRGC cells regulates the eye-brain signaling, breaking through the boundaries of traditional optical interventions and providing a new pathway for preventing myopia in children." Myopia is not merely a refractive issue but also a typical representative of "eye-brain axis" disorders. Recent studies have found that photobiomodulation, acting on the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), may delay axial length elongation through mechanisms such as regulating dopaminergic signaling pathways, circadian rhythm expression, and pupillary light reflex.The impact of PBM photobiomodulation technology on the visual signal transduction network offers new insights for breaking through the traditional single-optical correction model. Future myopia prevention and control necessitate the establishment of a multidimensional integrated treatment system, driving innovation in personalized and precision-based myopia prevention strategies.Looking ahead, Airdoc will continue to fulfill its mission of "making health accessible everywhere," continuously exploring and innovating in the field of AI-driven myopia prevention and control. We aspire to collaborate with more ecosystem partners to build a globally leading AI-integrated diagnosis and treatment solution for myopia prevention and control, advancing the standardization and widespread adoption of PBM(R) non-invasive phototherapy technology. Together, we aim to illuminate a clear vision for children and adolescents, co-creating a brilliant future for their eye health!Reference:[1] National Intellectual Property Administration - Patent No. ZL202410456292.3Note: PBM(R) and PBM-LED(R) are trademarks legally registered by Airdoc Technology and are protected by relevant laws and regulations, including the "Trademark Law of the People's Republic of China."
