I agree that the best path towards improving things is looking at what is realistic. Animal-rights groups will not likely ever persuade most of America to turn vegetarian, for example, but I bet if they really pushed for more humane conditions for food animals, they could get most people behind them on that. Many European nations have laws in place securing the humane treatment of food animals; I imagine we could follow suit if we really wanted to.
