Cow is the only animal that eats worth nothing hug and gives milk worth something along with livelihood. For me cow is as environmentally equal to a tree. But human beings had misused the opportunity to breed without humanity. Started breading in small spaces and commercialized it. Male calves are killed as soon as they are born.
Options:
Going vegan worth it?
No!
We have to change the scenario of how the cows are bread. Take challenges and make the government do right thing by changing laws. Some say move to vegan, stop drinking milk.
Solutions:
- Use male cows as free range cattle in Tree Gardens where trees are used for fruits and other construction purposes. They eat away all the grass and other weeds. This reduces human intervention, maintenance cost and also cow dung increases fertility of the land.
- Reduce Delhi smog from crop fire by releasing cattle to the farm land to remove the crop remains.
Consumption:
What does a cow eat anything except plastic. It gives dung worth an electric Stove. Yes exactly you heard it right. we get electricity from coal.
Banning milk import:
India has highest younger population which requires lot of protein. But the cost of protein and milk has sky rocketed. Indian government has failed to provide good nutrition at affordable rate. Poverty might reduce if India could revoke high taxes on milk and protein powder.
Importing milk from abroad reduces the price of milk which in turn improves our next generation to grow healthy. Even economically backward people also can afford good quality milk. Indian government has banned milk import to support local farmers but does not meet the demand. No it doesn't help any farmer instead promotes milk adultery by milk companies and price increase.
Methane gas release:
Some say methane gas released by cows which are harmful to environment. When there are no cows where do we get milk and it's products. Plants cannot give much protein equal to that of milk. Humans will move to other sources of protein which is much devastating and pricier.
