PETA scientists and their collaborators published a new study that uses lab-grown human lung cells instead of animals to test chemicals. The research is already making an impact, as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency used the data to develop guidance prioritizing human-relevant, non-animal data over inhalation tests on animals for certain types of chemicals.

“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”
— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA Founder and co-author of Animalkind
