Dairy vs. Plant Milks #

Our World in Data #

Cow’s milk has significantly higher impacts than the plant-based alternatives across all metrics. It causes around three times as much greenhouse gas emissions; uses around ten times as much land; two to twenty times as much freshwater; and creates much higher levels of eutrophication.

If you want to reduce the environmental footprint of your diet, switching to plant-based alternatives is a good option.
