All the information about awareness in animal cruelty sounded really good. However, I strongly disagree with the "Here's What You Can Do" section. Drinking milk is still important to your diet! Because many of the foods we eat are dairy products, the consumation of lactose is important to prevent intolerance. I would rather suggest that we should buy organic milk from farms that milk cows in the traditional way as much as possible, thus supporting their farms and our health at the same time. Same goes for switching to a vegetarian. I come from a family and culture where not eating meat is unheard of. It was also very important to give thanks and respect to the animal. I was really young, but one time it almost seemed sacrificial. To see those clips of the cows shrieking as they were tortures in to slaughter was truly hard to watch.
