THE CHINESE THIRST FOR MILK.

The Guardian on line has a fascinating 'Long Read' today on how the Chinese were encouraged to start to eat and drink dairy produce.

She has access to amazing goat produce from Ellie's Dairy which her body tolerates happily and means she hasn't drunk cow milk for many a year and hardly ever eats any 'cow' cheese.

But the Chinese consumption has taken off in a huge way, however, this is creating massive problems, for cows have to eat and the growing of their food is reliant on water, lots and lots of water.

They also produce a lot of gas.. lots and lots of gas and manure. The gas goes into the air but what do you do with the hundreds of tons of manure produced by these massive herds?

No green pastures for these animals, they are all kept in giant cattle sheds.

Read the article and be thankful if you can buy your own fresh cow or goats milk from a reputable supplier.

GeeGee Parrot.

PostScript: The day that Brexit was due to happen but isn't going to. What a cod's walloping mess the UK government has made out of it and how vicious some EU member states have been.
