Nut Milk... Way Worse Than It Sounds
There's a complex backstory behind the production of Almond Milk, but very clear ways in which it causes harm. In this 11 minute episode, we'll cut through the crap and look at the impact of this non-dairy alternative- from water consumption, to pollination, and beyond. And of course, we'll end with Do Better alternatives.
If you want a deeper dive into details of this industry, explore some of the resources I used for this episode:
