atreefullofstars:rudescience:leanaisnotabanana:zoologicallyobsessed:dairyisntscary:poweredbyplantas:Which one is your favorite? Mine is coconut milk! Ah yes, cashew milk is definitely cruelty free Almond milk also kills a ton of bees. Over 50 million bees (that’s more than one-third of bee commercial colonies) have died in 2018-19 winter in the US due to pollinating almonds. The bees can’t keep up and the almond industry in the US would collapse without bees. Thank you for pointing this out! A lot of vegan food is actually more detrimental to the environment as a whole, disrupting food webs and harming the ecosystem. (Source) Vegan food is NOT cruelty free. #I’m all for y'all choosing to eat how you like#just don’t go around telling me that your choices are more ~*ethical*~ than mine when you’re stealing food off Ecuadoran farmers’ tables^This.I am vegetarian myself (only consuming dairy, otherwise I don’t eat/use anything from animals) and this is really important! It’s important to know what you eat, some meat substitutes are worse for the environment than others. If you, like me, don’t eat meat for the environment.I would also like to add that out of those 8 milks above, 6 (cashew, almond, hazelnut, soya, rice, and coconut) have to be transported to Sweden (where I live), and 1 (hemp) is not even sold in Sweden (as far as I’m aware). Out of these 8, 1 (oat milk) is the most cruelty-free as it’s planted in Sweden and has been for a long time. Cashew industry is bad for the workers as they are underpaid, you can read about it here and here. And here’s an article about how almond milk affects the planet in a negative way. Educate yourselves on your choices before making “cruelty free” statements. You’re probably more priveleged (and naive) than you think.#StayEducated -- source link
