Got (alternative) milk?

If you are having milk with your cereal or in your tea or coffee today, you might want to consider that one liter of cow’s milk requires more water, land and produces more carbon dioxide than milk alternatives.

When compared to an alternative such as oat milk, cow’s milk needs 13 times more water, uses 11 times more land and generates over 3 times more greenhouse gas emissions.

Something to think about the next time you have the opportunity to choose the type of milk.

Share with a friend and keep the conversation going.
