Does anybody happen to know of any Peta videos or likewise revealing the cruelty of dairy farming?? I'd like to have something like that in my arsenal when asked why I'm VEGAN and not just vegetarian.
I'm so glad you asked this. Its been on my mind lately since a vegetarian friend told me he didn't know what happened with dairy, and as the only info I ever read on this topic was in one book 9 years ago that made me go vegan I couldn't really remember why, just that it shocked and disgusted me.
But then I remembered veal calves and how that is directly related to the dairy industry and told him about them and how its not good for the environment to grow all the food for the cows and have all the land (or a factory environment) for them & all the methane gas they produce e.t.c. And now he's slowly going vegan :).
The Vegan Society website is your one-stop shop for good information on why dairy farming is unethical.
Mad Cowboy also does a fabulous job for the US - it's hard to argue with a vegan environmentalist who used to be a cattle rancher and then was a lobbyist for the Cattlemen's Association.
