Dairy isn’t know for being great for the environment.
- yinyang_in 5y agoImo dairy isn't good if done via industry model i.e. central company provides value for all. All cow in central place, profit oriented. Old cows thrown for slaughter, it becomes very inhumane. Coming from village where cow is part of family and treatment like family and has name as we do, then same dairy become very beautiful relationship.
- selectnull 5y agoWhen that named cow gets old and dies, does it get buried in the family cemetery along with the rest of the family? Do you mourn for it? Or perhaps, it turns into a steak of some form or another?
- wutwutwutwut 5y agoWhy would having the cow part of the family be any better from an environmental point of view?
- rasguanabana 5y agoYou do realize that in order to get milk from a cow there is a precondition that ultimately leads to slaughter anyway? Unless you can afford keeping every calf and won’t exploit them for milk further.

- PretzelPirate 5y agoCows can exist without a dairy industry. The works used to use many wild ruminants whose existence naturally helped maintain the ecosystem.
