"Fantastically useful!”

George Monbiot
Project: Muck Maps



“Materiality helped us bring a complex issue to life. Working from our brief, they created compelling muck and ammonia maps that clearly illustrated the pollution impacts of industrial pig and poultry units. Their ability to translate technical data into engaging, accessible visuals made the issue easy for the public to understandand played an important role in driving our campaign forward.”

Anthony Field, Head of Compassion In World Farming UK
Projects: Muck Maps, Ammonia Maps, Toxic Trade-Off


"What they've exposed really does speak to society's ethics, and therefore it's something that Parliamentarians must in all conscience properly engage with … I think it's no overstatement to say that the issues with which this report deals are really a matter of life and death for all of us."

Caroline Lucas MP

"Meaningful change is possible, and this report shows why it is needed and how it can be done. It's a must read."

Professor Emma Boyland, University of Liverpool
Project: Unavoidable Impact


"I even had the opportunity to discuss the impact of intensive poultry farming on the River Wye, with Peter, one of the artists, whose work shows the sheer scale and horror of pollution from these farms."

Kerry McCarthy MP
Project: Chicken Shit/Cachu Iar


"There are six times as many outdoor ads in the most deprived areas of England as there are in the least deprived. Extraordinary new report by @adfreecities which shows how much advertising affects health and how it targets low income communities."
