Meet the new neighbors: 7.5 million chickens and their mountains of manure A sickening stench and hordes of flies: What it’s like to live near a mega factory farm.

Increasingly, the meat, milk, and eggs we eat come from mega factory farms, which house 5x, 10x, or 90x as many animals than what the govt. considers a "large" farm. I talked to people who live near them — about the stench, the flies, and more: www.vox.com/future-perfe...
