AaronC - I'm sure many will turn vegan as a response to this & other dairying disasters. But it can't be the only solution. It pisses me off when the Feds tell 'whinging urban environmentalists' (effectively) that they if they want to continue to enjoy their morning lattes they should put up and shut up. Because many of us consume dairy products it doesn't follow that we have to put up with the destruction of our environment and apalling treatment of animals...

Go back to Act’s blog.
