wocomoDOCS | The Milk System: uncovering truths about the dairy industry (Full documentary) @wocomodocs | Uploaded May 2024 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
There’s one thing milk stands for - health. It’s seen as natural and nutrient-rich. Which is exactly what makes it so attractive for the market. But is it really that healthy? We set out to take a critical look at the milk system.
Along the way we’ll meet farmers, dairy owners, politicians, lobbyists, NGOs, scientists. Each has their own views on the value and consequences of an industry with world-wide impact. Whether in Europe, Asia or Africa, milk is the allegorical model of streamlined-for-growth global food production and its consequences. The film uncovers surprising truths behind the system. Who profits at whose cost? Does the system have a future and are there alternatives? A journey across continents (Europe, Africa and China) that deals with preconceptions and brings solutions to light.

Milk is big business. Behind the seemingly innocent foodstuff hides a billion-strong industrial machine. Profit is made at a cost to the environment, the animals, the farmers and our health. Yet it doesn't have to be this way.
