Day one hundred ninety-nine/365. I see both sides. If my son, a vegan, were to eat eggs, this is exactly what he'd be looking for. Eggs from free-range chickens. Assurance that the birds lived as healthy and happy a life as a captive animal can. After all, information about the way animals are treated as commodities in factory-like environments is shocking.
On the other hand, how closely can we afford to scrutinize what we buy? Should we check each garment to be sure it wasn 't made by underpaid workers in a developing nation? My son will drink only certain brands of coffee out of fairness to workers. How much education do I need in order to shop justly?
Is there a line delineating what is reasonable?

Panda Claws traveled to the White House to promote ZooLights.
See the Zoo in a whole new light! This year, as a holiday gift to the city, Friends of the National Zoo announces ZooLights is free!
Create memories with loved ones while enjoying thousands of environmentally-friendly light and animal exhibits, entertainment, and a special train ride for children. Visitors can thaw their paws in our animal houses while attending special keeper talks, or stop by the Visitor Center to see the Zoo-themed model trains and the gingerbread habitat contest entries on display in the auditorium. Of course, the crown jewels of ZooLights are the dozens of animal light displays, including a new display featuring Andean bears.
