1. the calf drinks the cow's milk and ...Nisha, <br />1. the calf drinks the cow's milk and mostly none will be left for anyone else.<br />2. on avg half the calfs are bull calves<br />3. when i say 8 million are in excess, that means those many calfs are still left from the total whatever millions already taken for milk production or bull calves for work etc and hence are useless. our requirement for dairy is so high! <br />4.what will they do with the 8 million calves, when the demand for cheap milk is so high, they cant have sanctuaries for them. so they kill them.<br />4. each pound of butter needs 21 pounds of milk, and 1 pound of cheese or ice cream needs 10-15 pounds of milk. <br />5. its such a huge amount of consumption, when it is really not necessary. Milk and dairy products actually are responsible for heart disease and cancers.Richahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10853950260023760011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35869111.post-43404570539349867782011-12-01T20:05:11.571-08:002011-12-01T20:05:11.571-08:00It's good people more are getting enlightened....<b>It's good people more are getting enlightened.<br />But I don't understand why the calves have to be killed :-/<br />When they grow up and become cow, more cows = more milk right.....<br />Strange.</b>Nishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16694232194366527163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35869111.post-25368805268492638892011-12-01T14:57:23.914-08:002011-12-01T14:57:23.914-08:00Actually its not that difficult.. there are so man...Actually its not that difficult.. there are so many alternatives now. esp here in the US. There are non dairy milks easily available and comparably priced and all the other butter yogurt cheese alternatives.<br /> <br />In fact there is a big community of vegan in India too and now bigger city markets are starting to get alternatives. <br /><br />There are some posts on this blog about dairy alternatives and u can check my food blog for recipes which use the alternatives.. hope you will get inspired and reduce some of the consumption. any reduction means one life saved!Richahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10853950260023760011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35869111.post-92095008792772471722011-12-01T14:44:17.491-08:002011-12-01T14:44:17.491-08:00Hey Richa, thanks for the response & for the i...<b>Hey Richa, thanks for the response & for the information.<br />Came across your blogs first time today, and so glad I did.
