Milk Alternatives

A glass of dairy Cow milk produces almost three times more greenhouse gas than any plant-based milk. But vegan options have drawbacks of their own.

for environmentally minded consumers, the news is hard to swallow: almond milk is not healthy for the planet and the popular milk substitute is especially hard on bees. Our recent investigation into the connection between California’s industrialized almond industry and a record 50 Billion commercial bee deaths created quite a buzz. The widely read story prompted one primary response from readers: “What should we be drinking instead?”

Here is the comparison Please check yourself what is better for you and environment.

One thing is clear. All milk alternatives are far better for the planet than dairy. A 2018 study by researchers at the University of Oxford showed that producing a glass of dairy milk results in almost three times more greenhouse gas emissions than any plant-based milk and it consumes nine times more land than any of the milk alternatives. (Land is required to pasture the cows and grow their feed, which the animals belch out in the form of methane.)

  1. I have made this cashew milk for our smoothies and baking and really enjoy the flavor and ease to make it (no straining required). If I don’t need it for baking I just add 1/4 cup to the smoothie when I make it in the morning and it gives a perfect creamy texture
