Iceland is highlighted as red at 53:23, stating that 80-100% of our population is lactose-intolerant. This couldn't be further from the truth! The Icelandic culture is known for its high milk consumption and the majority of Icelanders are very lactose persistent, just like their Nordic neighbors. We even have the 26th highest milk consumption in the world which makes sense, as the typical diet here consists of a variety of milk products like whole milk, skyr, yogurt, butter, cream, súrmjólk, etc. I get that data can be difficult to find, but please don't make up your own instead!
@@Sudusukkuladi No one named the country Iceland by word, so it was probably an honest mistake making the area red, because it is geografically close to Greenland.
I am 67 and know now we were brain washed from children to think we needed dairy for health (clever marketing). It makes sense once we are weaned milk is no longer necessary. Brilliant documentary. This should be on mainstream t.v. Helen Keeling
Humans do many things that are not "necessary" but are nonetheless enjoyable. I drink milk and eat cheese because I like them, and the vegan versions that call themselves are disgusting. Nut "milk" is basically a slurry of ground up nuts of various kinds and vegan cheese is an abomination of highly processed palm oil that looks and tastes like plastic. And are much more expensive.
@@richardgregory3684 Why aren't you adding this to your comments that it seems all you non vegans keep avoiding saying ?? " I don't give a d*mn about the horrors the animals endure being raised for $$$ as well as so called taste that has ingredients in it that are not healthy and the barbaric horrific pain they go through because I lack common sense and compassion and care only about my taste buds ". In speaking about taste , obviously you haven't tried ALL the products on the market and refuse to accept the fact that all and any animal products are the cause of the majority of our health issues that we seem to think is normal ( ???!!!). The prices are coming down as more people are buying these products. Watch Cowspiracy and Milked regarding your ( not yours in the first place ! ) milk before you comment.
There are a lot of excellent aspects about this documentary. If I were to pick only one, I would say it is the way in which farmers are not demonized but instead are shown as casualties of the dairy industry. We all are suffering with this exploitation and it needs to end- permanently.
I know! It's so good and refreshing to see that. The vegan protesting I see against farmers makes no sense. I don't know what sort of behaviour change my vegan brothers and sisters expect to see by vilifying families and individuals who work for us day in and day out. Trespassing on their property, taking their stock and calling them murderers is only going to push them away. The odds against farmers working for change are steep. We should be exposing the system that fails to support farmers in making that change; not protesting the farmers, themselves.
Fonterra is a farmer co-operative, so in a very real way the dairy industry is the farmers are the dairy industry. fortunately 95% of its products go to a hungry world that appreciates it rather than to the spoiled 1st world brats that would tear it all down.
@@mikecoote9546 I wasn't talking about Fonterra, I was thinking mainly of the govt, not incentivising the right things, trapping people in an endless cycle of dairy production.
@@mikecoote9546 I think the main problem is that dairy is an environmental disaster, it's atrocious for animal welfare and is increasingly being shown to be terrible for human health. Those are the facts I've seen. It's just taking quite a while for the facts to get out amidst all the dairy industry propaganda. But we're getting there, ay? One step at a time. Great to see this film making headway.
As a NZ dairy farmer who produces milk sold to Fonterra, this is an interesting watch. Thank you for the time spent investigating and sharing this information.
Thank for being open minded and for giving this a watch. Another good film is Cowspiracy. If you haven't seen that one, I encourage you to give that one a watch too.
Good for you! I have been vegan since about 2018 want to stay with it until the end of my life. Hopefully, by the end of my lifetime, the mainstream food industry will be vegan because of the economic disruptions mentioned in this documentary.
To anyone reading this that thinks its too late, its never fuckin too late to go vegan and any time you start is the best time and will save u from the day you start
I remember as a boy staying on my friend’s dairy farm during calving. They took the calves off their mothers, then all night long and each day, for the 4 days I stayed there, I could hear the cows calling and crying out to their taken babies. You know it’s not right even as a child. Then I saw the baby calves in pens by the gate, some looked unwell, and were lying on top of each other. I asked my friend’s dad why are they there, and he said they are going to hospital. (They actually go to be killed at the meat works) As an adult I asked my friend if anything has changed and he said, they still send most the calves at 4 days old to the meat-works. He said the only change is there’s more intensive farming, and they don’t smash them other the head as much. Since the law change in 2014. Prior to that a mallet to kill them was legal. As often it was cheaper to kill them on the farm than send them to the works. He admitted it’s still pretty bad on a dairy farm. I think it’s an appalling, disgraceful, dirty, cruel, polluting industry. What’s worse it’s all for a product that humans don’t even need.
So kind of you to release this to the public. Your work, dedication and passion are greatly admired and appreciated. May your message have an effect on the culture and governmental practices in New Zealand...and spread to the rest of the world. Much love from Costa Rica, where we have similar problems.
I was just thinking that New Zealand could show the way for the rest of the countries of the world. They already showed that a whole country could change from sheep farming to dairy. Now they need to change again to hemp, pumpkin seeds, etc, as the documentary showed. Well said!
I don't know what you're thanking them for their just pushing a agenda they're all tied into publish or perish which results in misinformation and and people are just accepting it as a given without questioning they don't care about your health they want people getting sick that keep them in business so misinformation where it's at
I work in healthcare and watch shattered hips from the elderly who have fallen but dutifully consumed dairy all of their lives hoping it would save them from osteoporosis. Shame, shame on the industry.
Some of the major gripes that typical folk might have watching pro-plant based documentaries is that the films can seem to come from an alarmist, confrontational and judgemental angle. For them, seemingly an attempt to shock and shame the viewer into change. While there is no escaping the hideous truth of this film's subject, I appreciated the care of the writers and production team to present their findings in the least biased method they could. It is always a challenge when the evidence is so damning. The script was calm and inquisitive, and it flowed well between the authentic and engaging stories. While the segments promoting actionable solutions provided hope amongst the dread of reality. The cinematography showing the true cost that the natural beauty, fauna, and livestock of New Zealand has paid for the profit of this industry. Yet I have still left this documentary feeling positive and filled with conviction. I hope that future documentaries learn a lot from this style of journalistic integrity, in which stepping back slightly from the apocalyptic narrative may resonate positively to a wider audience. I'm very proud of my brothers and sisters across the ditch who were responsible this brilliant documentary.👏
Thank you for this film! I've been vegetarian for about 6 years and my diet has been quite vegan based for about two years now. But this week I thought that it might be time to make the transition to a fully vegan lifestyle. Luckily someone recommended this film so I've had a movie night of watching What the health and this one and there's no going back!
I approve of this message. I'll never stop drinking milk and eating meat. The Likes of the Seventh Day Adventist Church has caused this bloody mess, with animals. They've been taken off the land for the sake of wheat, soy, sugar, and grains for oil which is unhealthy for humans and animals. Perhaps one day, you'll see it.
I'm a New Zealand former dairy farmers daughter he transitioned to horticulture in the 1970s and helped develop NZs kiwiifruit avocado and tropical fruit industries - I'm vegetarian from childhood I became vegan while living in Europe in 2001 and have been a vegan activist ever since - I love this film even tho it made me cry I've witnessed a lot of this first hand. They missed out bits like farmers in Central Otago going around banging baby calves on the head with a hammer then leaving them in rotting dying piles - male calves and excess females are useless to a farmer - under corporate, agribusiness, Fonterra and exports to China and elsewhere pressure NEW ZEALAND TREATS ITS ANIMALS AND ITS FARMERS LIKE SHIT. WHERE IS THE HELP TO TRANSITION TO PLANT-BASED HORTICULTURE NOW? WHERE ARE THE SUBSIDIES ???? FEDERATED FARMERS Southland was crying out for help to transition its willing farmers from sheep and dairy to oats - but little warm response from govt. The govt fuckery is unbelievable. Suicides among farmers are high simply because they know what they are doing to the environment and animals, but they cannot GET HEARD BY GOVT. BECAUSE GOVT IS IN BED WITH FONTERRA AND CORPORATE SHADOW EXECUTIVES THAT RUN THEM AND LOCAL COUNCILS AND INDUSTRIES. $$$$$$$$$
Thank you for telling your story. I hope this film helps to expose the problems and moves people to make changes. I agree, the farmers need governmental supports to transition to a healthy sustainable enterprise. Stay strong and remember - Hope has two beautiful daughters : Anger and Courage. The two daughters help us to make changes.
Thank you and your family for being part of the solution to so many problems!

Just ask! Links for some of these are at my channel under "About."
Such a powerful documentary. I’ve been vegan for 27 years and I still learned some horrible things. Shared and will share again. Thank you so much for posting this!
Now I'm trying to go full blown activist. I think it's almost better to go "animal liberation activist" rather than, or part and parcel of being vegan. I think avoiding the word vegan however talks more about systemic oppression of animals.
thank you for this film and standing up against what is clearly wrong and needs changed. We need more of this and it needs shown in schools (which will be fought), regular TV stations that the elderly and poor who don't have cable or internet can watch. thank you for making it available for free. I am passing it on. Great job.

@@nukestrom5719 We have to remember that (despite what they say) you might be chipping away at their ignorance. Most do care, but they don't want to admit that you have a point. Most of them care about dogs and/or cats. They just need to see that all animals deserve moral consideration. When I deal with them in online debates, I look for other reasons for them to care, like their own health and longevity, and or the environment.

Thank you for taking the time to make this documentary and allowing us to watch for free. Plant based diet for 27 years two of my children were vegan babies and I can say that as far as the birth was concerned I noticed the difference from my first birth when I was eating meat. Those two were completely clean and it was almost pain free. I am now 61 years old and people literally do not believe me. Stay blessed 🙏🏾
Each documentary released seems to be more powerful and impactful than the prior ones. Let's keep these documentaries coming, as they unfold reality and tell the truth behind corporate lies, profits and greed.
@@trouble9862 Yes, unfold reality. The reality that they don't want the general population to know about. That's why everything is a secret and behind closed doors and a big propaganda advertisement campaign. Let's start allowing grade school children to tour slaughterhouses and dairy farms like they do museums and art exhibits, if you don't think there's a hidden reality.

@@someguy2135 most of your points are inaccurately portrayed and do not represent acrual facts when you consider all aspects influencing the points you listed. Nice try though.
Wish more New Zealanders would watch this, we are all being fed this lie that we have such a 'clean green' country and animal agriculture is a foreign problem.
This is absolutely brilliant film. I feel so much more informed about just how comprehensively this is damaging the planet now, great reporting. Information is power.
This documentary should be required viewing in every school - for every child. The world could change rapidly if young minds were educated on the truth - they could save our planet. 🌎🥰.
I'm looking forward to this. I'm hoping we can make this another big hit for the vegan and plant-based movement. It's up to us to share this with as many people as possible!
Yes yes yes. Hey, btw remember me from Vegan Gaze's livestream yesterday? I ended up actually going to do the activism at Condado in SanJuan🇵🇷. I was successfull, had multiple conversations, hope i did plant that much needed seed in their brains or just watered it because it was already planted by someone else.
Its pretty difficult to convince people in New Zealand to stop sucking off a cow - but the countryside is wrecked because of animal agriculture. Transitioning to plant-based has not been a popular view - but where I've seen it done it changes the landscape - in a good way.
It's not as simple as that. The demand for human foods of any kind is driven by the population - there are always demands on the land, air and water. Shifting to veganism just puts more and different stressors on the ecosystem. Also, a world where animals hold no economic value could turn into a world without any animals - think about that for a second. This is a very complex issue, with humans at its center. Perhaps we need to explore (as has been done before) whether or not and how much humans need to consume
@@susanwoodward7485 I am worried that you have watched Milked and are still very confused in your thinking. I can try and relate to you by remembering about ten years ago my sister saying to me that people have a huge disconnect about what they are eating. Also my friend telling me about the baby calf veal industry and that drinking milk supports the dairy industry. These were concepts that I had never heard of or thought about. You may be at the very beginning of learning so many things about the exploitation of animals and the marketing lies. If you are able to make the connection one day, it will be like the ‘wool’ has been pulled away from your eyes. 💚
@@breninaotearoa4152 I think you misunderstood me. I have been opposed to Big/Ag industrial farming and the mistreatment of farm animals for decades, along with general raping of the land, forests, waterways and oceans that has been the legacy of at least the last 100 years. My point is that undisciplined, unrealized, ego-driven human beings in general are the problem. Do not be manipulated into believing that synthetic foods will alter the problem. GMO monoculture feed-stock crops for genetically-engineered fermentation bacteria and yeasts will generated an even more dysfunctional landscape and environmental degradation.
Once I saw the misery of what dairy cows are put through, the truth behind the lies there was no more turning a blind eye or making excuses. Been vegan for the animals for twelve years, would never ever go back!
That farmer is wrong… I DO think about the farmer’s livelihood. They need to find other types of sustainable farming or go out of business. The. End. Edit: that one guy said “just because there’s a market for something doesn’t make it right” is spot on. There are markets for child trafficking, but no one supports providing children for it 🤷♀️
@@ikvangalen6101 the dairy industry isn't making a profit anyhow and it's been on a huge decline. Then there's also the fact that the process of impregnating the cattle is enough to cause ptsd first hand and that the cows are pumped full of soo many antibiotics because they're always pregnant and always having an infection. Yea that's right milk drinkers, that's not milk that's fucking puss. You're drinking a large amount of boiled puss.
People are not willingly ignorant. They have been raised thinking it was ok. The loudest voice says it’s good for you and the people that know better call them ignorant 🤦🏻♀️
A lot of people don’t like to be “different “. They like to do what they are familiar with. The norm if you will. Some are very hard to change. That’s why the more people that switch, it will hopefully be the norm one day and that’s how you will change the minds of the hardest to reach. I know many people like this and it is definitely frustrating.
@@MsPants1632 I like breathing fresh air, because that's what I'm familiar with, and thee are different people like to smoke. Should I go against "the norm" and smoke too? Regardless of what the substance is, with regards to animal products and animal byproducts, we consume what we physiologically crave. Milk is a nutritious byproduct. We actually crave the fats for energy and the proteins for strength. Listen to your body, and you won't go wrong.
This all seems to be common sense to me now! But, "You don't know what you don't know" and there was a time when I didn't know about the horrors of animal agriculture. It does piss me off, though, when people acknowledge the truth but are unwilling to change their habits! The message is spreading and people are becoming conscious -- slowly, very slowly! The world has no choice except to WAKE UP before it's too late.
Soon after I became vegan I had a striking realization - "You mean to tell me that eating this way is not only healthier, but it's better for the planet, and ALL THOSE ANIMALS didn't need to die?" I was pissed off. 😡 Because you realize that what they told us as kids, was a lie. They told us that "milk does a body good." but it really not good at all. It gives kids inflammation, allergies, diabetes, and cancers..... it couldn't be farther from the truth. So can we all sue them?
@@drunkvegangal8089 That suuuucks. I heard that most kids have that same reaction. When I was young we had some ducks as pets, and my mom would take the duck eggs and cook them for breakfast. Me and my sister told her that we refused to eat those eggs. But she tricked us, she would still use the eggs to make cookies and fed them to us. Dogmatic propaganda is strong, but your parents couldn't teach you what they themselves didn't know. And this innate human behavior proves that eating animal flesh in any form is not inherently human. We were designed to eat plants. Even the shape of our teeth proves it.
@@ChrisHPSNZ Well it is certainly possible that the domesticated cow species would go extinct due to the fact they would struggle to survive in most wild places given their genetic mutation. However, the increasing of wild spaces would allow for the revitilisation of many other species and it is likely that a transition to plant-based agriculture would certainly increase the numbers of wild cattle types such as the buffalo and bison. I also have the quiet hope that we could perhaps choose wild locations that their presence would have a positive impact on the ecosystem and hope they survive, or even try and reverse genetic engineer them so they can survive once more (though I'm not sure there is much chance of that)
I´m blown away by this insight. I gave up meat almost 4yrs ago after spending a weekend on a friend´s diary farm, it was calving season and we hand-fed the calves that had just been born and taken away from their mother. Their practice was according to standards but very disturbing for someone who has never stayed on a commercial farm. This really answered some of the questions that I had not the courage to ask.
So excited for this to be released! Educating people is the only way for change. I’m so thankful I educated myself almost one year ago and I feel amazing! WFPB 100% 🎉🎉🎉🇨🇦
WFPB, that’s “Whole Food Plant Based”. Say it loud and say it proud. I’m seventy two and I’ve been on a WFPB diet for 5 yrs and have never felt better. It’s the cheapest most beneficial diet.

Yea, I’m totally with you. I call WFPB a win-win-win-win situation 1. It’s cheap and good for your wallet 2. It’s healthy AND delicious 3. It’s the best diet for the environment 4. It’s GREAT for the animals
Thank you for uploading this. This was an amazing documentary and very well done. Makes me proud to have given up all meat, dairy and fish. WFPB diet is the best and healthiest way for humans to eat.
Watching this, even as a vegan, makes me want to cry. I already knew what dairy does to the planet, to people and mostly, to the animals, but each time I see something like this my mind boggles how can people be so selfish, stupid and short sighted.
Yes I know what you feel, I feel it the way when they take the vegetables of the land and cut those poor crops and those vegans are vegetable killers, everytime I see the vegetables poorly in the store I try to comfort them en cry with them. They treat the vegetables so poorly, shame for the farmers who do this to the crops.
As a Farmer i appreciate the perspective and agree that large changes need to be made. whilst i dont agree with everything said here the overall point i think is important and i hope in the future we can all get on the same page for a better Aotearoa
I went hiking around Queenstown two months ago. All the hiking trails were surrounded by cattle&sheep pastures. The findings regarding water pollution match up with what I saw there. All the trails I went to were stinky and littered with manure. I wanted to see some trees but there weren't many and the few that existed seemed to be withering away.
These plant documentaries need to be in every hospital, doctors office, school and church and home and grocery stores , gyms and many other areas as MANDATORY practices and education!
Excellent! I hesitate to recommend documentaries like Cowspiracy and What the Health to folks because they’re so melodramatic. But this documentary is calm, cool and collected while still imparting important information. I will highly recommend to all of my Baby Boomer milk drinking friends!
@ExcessivePoison Boomer vegan here. I made the change for good about 5 years ago. Better late than never. Like most vegans, I now wish I had learned the truth sooner.
True, but to convince someone they’ve been wrong (fooled) their whole life and taking away something they enjoy eating can be a bit too much for people to take in. Better to peel the onion layer by layer. For me it started with Game changers and the book How not to die. After eating WFPB for a while I went for the inner layer, Dominion. You can never unsee the horror and there is just no way to go back to eating animal products after watching it. For me personally it is the most important documentary I have ever seen and changed me forever. I see Milked as a great eye opener that approaching veganism from the environment perspective. I came from the health perspective of WFPB, but no matter where you start from I’m sure what makes people stay vegan is the Ethics of animal welfare. Continue to spread the truth and help people take the next step to understand the horror of animal farming, as well as the benefits of WFPB! Peace!
Such a well formulated documentary . Learned alot about the new furthering solutions and alternatives to break the age old conditioning to just accept whats being going for decades as the norm and start questioning the labels and greenwashing thats been happening. As the demand grows for plant based alternatives and increasing awareness of the unnecessary cruelty going on ,hope there truly occurs a market trauma leading to a shift of the collective mindsets and lifestyles.
This film was great! I can only hope the predictions about the dairy industry decline turn out to be correct. There will be a lot less suffering in this world.
Its going yippee, saw a thing from USA they are making milk in vats it costs $.10 for a bottle or something and no cows needed, can't wait for this to come to NZ
truly eye opening - I haven’t used dairy products in over a year-- was always grossed out by cheese -- so happy I became aware of the negative impacts -- environmentally - and especially for our health! Can’t wait to see dairy become obsolete !
me too! I never drank that much milk growing up and never liked cheese or chocolate. People always thought I was weird, but it sure made it easy for me to go vegan.

I am from india ..land of milk for us..since last 2 months i have been vegan ..with no dairy Never thought how my entire way of eating will change my thinking as well Full of energy
I have no problem meeting me I will never become a vegetarian or a vegan my wife always jokes and says what are the plants feeling every time we eat a plant she says are they feeling just like the animals belt I totally remember plants can't have feelings we can eat them all we want because if they did there'd be no vegetarians
Don't be daft. Reduce or cycle fish, poultry and animal meat sure but do not totally eliminate. Humans need certain foodstuffs ( oils, proteins, amino acids etc) for bodily health.
I've been vegan since 2019. It is one of the best decisions I have ever done. I wish I had done it sooner. I am fitter now than I have ever been and I no longer have diabetes 2, and high blood pressure.
I signed the petition, of course, but please consider moving the last paragraph to the top, so maybe more people will sign it...there's a lot of reading to do before getting to the gist of the petition...the paragraph I think needs to move from the bottom to the top: "Support our campaign to reduce the United States dairy herd 25% by 2025* as part of a global effort to reduce the devastating impacts of dairy worldwide. MILKED will deliver this petition to world leaders at COP27. Together we can change this."
This was so informative for me!!!!! I gave up meat 2yrs ago but still eat cheese & eggs as I cannot digest bean/lentils etc so made up more protein with cheese etc… I make my own almond/hemp milk BUT…. this has made me more determined to give up the dairy… I just love animals and the planet far too much. I cannot hide anymore behind the thought of “I’m not killing any animal for cheese”… I wish this would get more on mainstream because if society really knew what went on, the majority would change!!!! Thank you so much for teaching me more informed knowledge…💗
That still leaves nuts, seeds, and whole grains for good sources of protein. Peanuts, and peanut butter are amazing nutritional powerhouses. I forget the name, but Indonesia makes a tempeh from peanuts. You might want to check into it. Cheese has casomorphin, which is mildly addictive. I weened myself off of it by switching to Cheetos for the flavor, and just enough casomorphin to keep me from giving in and eating pure cheese. I then ate less and less. Now I love nutritional yeast instead of Parmesan, and when I get the urge, I eat Hippeas, a plant based version of Cheetos. Delicious! Just as tasty. I wonder if you could digest miso, or tempeh, since they are fermented versions of soy. Have you tried tofu? Don't fear soy, like I used to. The Japanese people have used it as a staple for many generations. They have the longest lifespan of any country.
@@someguy2135 I really appreciate your response so thank you 🙏…. I went vegan years ago but ended up eating chicken, fish, eggs & cheese after a couple of years because my digestive system was so messed up ;with lentils, beans) so this time, I haven’t eaten those (I tried for a week but same problems with extreme gas, bloating) so I know for sure I just cannot digest them. This is one of the major problems for many and that is why they go back to eating meat. I’m trying my hardest to stay meat free as I just love animals so much, so I have been eating pea protein, buckwheat, amaranth, quinoa, eggs, nuts, seeds, tempeh (I seem to be fine with), peas, edamame and nutritional yeast plus veg… I make my own milk and soak then dehydrate nuts (which has been fine on my digestion)… I am trying to know cut the cheese first and will follow your advice and see how it all goes. I will probably still eat eggs, just until I know I’m fine with everything else and my digestion settles and then try removing eggs… this doesn’t really get acknowledged that much in the vegan society, which is such a shame because so many more people would transition if they could digest, beans, pulses, lentils… I’m doing everything in my power to overcome this, whilst still taking full care of my nutrition, health and well being.. if I can make this a success without those things, then so many more will know it is sustainable. Not really tried tofu and will definitely do it. I need to find more ways to use tofu also… I’m pleased with how I’ve gone these last 2yrs without any meat, so I know for sure I’m fine without it… just need to master my protein input, as this will then enable me to cut the eggs for sure…I’m actually not that bothered with the taste of cheese, for me, it was the protein from the cheese, which upped my grams… so just the eggs now and hopefully not for long 🙏
Sprouted lentils provide protein 👍 all micro greens and sprouts contain tons of amino acids and other minerals. Yes cooked beans can be hard on the body
Being of age and how to manage the sequence of returns in those early periods is what seems quite scary in the current market. The market is never a loser in the twenty year cycle, but the 2000s decade scenario scares me and could really disrupt my retirement. When you're no longer accumulating but withdrawing, it's hard to be anything but cautious.
Wow, I'm just shocked someone mentioned and recommended expert Mrs Diana Lynne Bobka. I thought people don't really know her. I invested £ 2,000 with Mrs Diana Lynne Bobka after i met her at a conference in London, she made me profit of £ 11,790 in just 7- 14 days of trading with her and i invested more.
Hello!!, I'm pleased to meet investors of Diana Lynne Bobka. I recently ventured into investing with her undertaking trades on my behalf. She has been of great help and her tutelage has brought me to a higher understanding of profit generation.
As a child, I had to deal with parents, brother, and aunts trying to get me to drink milk and eat eggs 'for my own good.' I'm so glad now that I didn't like the taste of either.
My acne reduced by 90% by leaving dairy, achieved great weight loss, improved my digestion like I could digest dirt, guilt reduced by 100% for the animal cruelty I was part of and much more. There is no other way, quit it now or reduce it by huge huge percent.
Thank you, PBN & everyone involved with this film. 💓🙏 Dairy was the last animal product I gave up 25 years ago, when I went vegan (I was Vegetarian before that because I was taught that we had to have dairy and I believed it). Prior to 1997, I used to eat dairy cheese every single day, if I could easily stop eating dairy cheese, I think anyone can do it. As soon as I learned that I did not have to eat dairy/cheese, that was it for me. I'm so glad it's so easy to share that information now, in ways like this/film. 💕
Same, I was a HUGE cheese lover. 2+ years ago I learned the truth about the dairy and meat industry and went vegan. Now I make my own wonderful, cheap and healthy pizza with lots of home-made melty vegan "cheese" on top. : - D I'm so happy to see so many people learning the truth and going vegan. Thank you Jessica, you're doing amazing.💓🙏
I gave up meat 2yrs ago but still ate cheese & eggs… made my own plant milk etc but just watched this and decided no more kidding myself that I’m not killing to eat my cheese… I just love animals and the planet too much to contribute to this… so at age 50!!!!! I’m now officially 100% Vegan… I really wish this would get more on mainstream for society to see the real truth on dairy….💗
@@Phoenixrises89 Thank you SO much! Thank you for being open enough to change and thank you for committing to 100% Veganism! I am so appreciative! I'm so glad that you watched the video and that it had an impact on you. Congratulations on 3/25/22 as your Veganniversary date! ❤️. YAY!!!
And sadly most people don't want to see these documentaries, they don't want to see the truth, most would rather die then change what they eat! Completly blinded cult members! Great film here
Thank you so much, Robbie and Klaus for letting me watch the video. I've known so much about the industry but there's alway more to learn, unfortunately all negative. But the hope presented at the end of the film was wonderful. We'll see... Thanks again guys and keep up your invaluble work, I really look forward to it. Cheers and much love✌
thank you for doing this, I know this film could have been made in so many other countries that also shares a deeply entrenched dairy habit. I live in Chile and it is so infuriating to see how they get away with big lies and keep people in the dark. Truth will come out strong in the end and we will someday leave this all in the past I'm sure
Dairy is fucking disgusting so sad seeing that farmer who is basically forced to dairy cows when he clearly knows it is wrong. And ppl say what would these farmers be doing....happily anything else I can tell you. This shit is fucked up.
As an Asian vegan, I really bad watching this because while I read and watch about dairy industry going down in the West, they just diversify and move their operations here. The animals and the planet don't have a chance unless we all wake up from this! 😭
Spread the word by pasting the link to this documentary on all possible social platforms. More people NEED to see this . Not just the vegan/animal activists community!
Very eye opening, educational, and heart wrenching all at the same time. I am the only plant based eater at home, but this really impresses upon me the need to stop buying animal products all together, especially dairy, if my family is to experience the same benefits I have, by moving away from these animal products.
You can see why none of the other companies would agree to the interview on camera. Dairy does not stand up to scrutiny. Dairy may be the ruler of the NZ economy, but the Emperor has no clothes!
It's interesting I haven't seen or heard a milk industry advertisement for ages and just today in a short 20 minute drive I heard the same one twice pushing the myth that milk makes your bones stronger. And I thought to myself gee I hope the plant-based industry is putting pressure on them that they have to try and start advertising. GO PLANT-BASED INDUSTRY!!!!!
So Fonterra sells Plant based milk? Oh never mind, it’s just regular cows milk on a container thats says “plant based” (cause apparently the container is what’s plant based) That’s not misleading at all… 🤦🏽♂️
I'm in Canterbury and haven't drunk tap water for years, cloudy nitrate water yuck. Also I'm glad I became lactose intolerant as a teen, milk is baby cow growth formula that gives us osteoporosis. Avoid cow milk at all costs, drink plant milk. Almond milk, rice milk, coconut milk, oat milk yum. Big like for this awesome documentary 🌱👍
Nothing is more valuable than fresh water! I have been boycotting dairy for years. I will be vegan for the rest of my life! I spend a lot of time educating others about the facts that led me to make the change for good.
This was exceptional. It covered the problem from all angles, which should help the film reach a broader audience, and will hopefully make people more accepting of the information.
A timely and urgent documentary. I'm from Southland, the heart of the sheep farming industry back then but these days covered in dairy farms, and I grew up eating meat with every meal. At the age of 25, the cognitive dissonance got too much and I went vegetarian (for the animals) and once I found out that calves were killed to produce dairy (thanks to SAFE) I went vegan overnight. That was 25 years ago. Best decision I ever made. If this guy from Gore can do it, anybody can. Now raising my son vegan and for him the idea of eating an animal or drinking milk from a cow is totally bizarre. I think every New Zealander should watch this film and stop turning a blind eye to the misery and environmental degradation caused by our biggest industry. I now live in Berlin and when I tell people over here that two thirds of New Zealand's waterways are unsafe for swimming, largely thanks to big dairy, and we have the highest proportion of threatened native species in the world, they are in shock. Meanwhile the government's new Emissions Reduction Plan (ERP) does very little to address the problem and is basically a free pass to the dairy industry. I urge all my fellow NZers to take a stand against dairy. Stop buying the damned stuff (oat milk is a great replacement), share and talk about this film and petition the government to take more action: petition.act.greenpeace.org.nz/agriculture-climate-action-plan
Thank you Chris. This has made changing so much easier. I have been making the lifestyle change over the last year. Now I’m in boots and all. Great movie, you are a special person to be willing to do what you have. Well done
Welcome to the happy bunch :) I promise you, seven years on there is only one thing I regret, not doing it sooner :) Enjoy it, because it's the best thing you could have done :)
Great documentary - I watched Cowspiracy about 4 years ago and became vegan 6 months later - I'll be 70 next month, its never too late to change / wake up.
This needs to go viral! So tiring to always be made out as extreme in my views because I’m plant based like how much longer do we have to go before the narrative is changed??
Cool beans! So many friendly and healthier alternatives; soy milk, pea milk, potato, oat milk, hemp milk, rice milk, cashew, almond, banana milk, flax milk, hazelnut, macadamia, coconut milk, pistachio, walnut, mama's milk, and friendliest of all no milk.
Excellent documentary. Thank you so much, Chris and team, and PBN for premiering it. I think taste will be the weapon of stealth. If dairy and meats can be fermented or otherwise made without animals, animal agriculture will be over like that! The ethical issues of animal rights and environmental destruction will be addressed on a public level and the health issues (relating to the amount of plants one eats, etc.) will become a personal choice. Planting hemp to reduce nitrogen in the soil will then prepare the soil for other crops like oats to make oat milk and there will be much less emotion around all of this because people's traditional tastes for meat and dairy will have been satisfied thanks to fermentation, 3D printed meat (e.g. Redefine Meat) and other technologies.
Congratulations on the excellent documentary! I had never heard of this RethinkX project and I feel a lot more hopeful about the future now! I've been vegan for 8 years and I'm never going back to animal protein, but I'm glad those who wish to continue eating 'real' dairy can do so without destroying our wonderful planet.

Iceland is highlighted as red at 53:23, stating that 80-100% of our population is lactose-intolerant. This couldn't be further from the truth! The Icelandic culture is known for its high milk consumption and the majority of Icelanders are very lactose persistent, just like their Nordic neighbors. We even have the 26th highest milk consumption in the world which makes sense, as the typical diet here consists of a variety of milk products like whole milk, skyr, yogurt, butter, cream, súrmjólk, etc. I get that data can be difficult to find, but please don't make up your own instead!
@@Sudusukkuladi No one named the country Iceland by word, so it was probably an honest mistake making the area red, because it is geografically close to Greenland.
@@carinaekstrom1 Mistakes can be made and they can also be addressed and fixed :)
I am 67 and know now we were brain washed from children to think we needed dairy for health (clever marketing).
It makes sense once we are weaned milk is no longer necessary. Brilliant documentary. This should be on mainstream t.v.
Helen Keeling
And our kids are getting brain washed in schools by it now, too
YES !
Humans do many things that are not "necessary" but are nonetheless enjoyable. I drink milk and eat cheese because I like them, and the vegan versions that call themselves are disgusting. Nut "milk" is basically a slurry of ground up nuts of various kinds and vegan cheese is an abomination of highly processed palm oil that looks and tastes like plastic. And are much more expensive.
@@richardgregory3684 Why aren't you adding this to your comments that it seems all you non vegans keep avoiding saying ??
" I don't give a d*mn about the horrors the animals endure being raised for $$$ as well as so called taste that has ingredients in it that are not healthy and the barbaric horrific pain they go through because I lack common sense and compassion and care only about my taste buds ". In speaking about taste , obviously you haven't tried ALL the products on the market and refuse to accept the fact that all and any animal products are the cause of the majority of our health issues that we seem to think is normal ( ???!!!).
The prices are coming down as more people are buying these products.
Watch Cowspiracy and Milked regarding your ( not yours in the first place ! ) milk before you comment.
There are a lot of excellent aspects about this documentary. If I were to pick only one, I would say it is the way in which farmers are not demonized but instead are shown as casualties of the dairy industry. We all are suffering with this exploitation and it needs to end- permanently.
I know! It's so good and refreshing to see that.
The vegan protesting I see against farmers makes no sense. I don't know what sort of behaviour change my vegan brothers and sisters expect to see by vilifying families and individuals who work for us day in and day out. Trespassing on their property, taking their stock and calling them murderers is only going to push them away.
The odds against farmers working for change are steep. We should be exposing the system that fails to support farmers in making that change; not protesting the farmers, themselves.
Fonterra is a farmer co-operative, so in a very real way the dairy industry is the farmers are the dairy industry. fortunately 95% of its products go to a hungry world that appreciates it rather than to the spoiled 1st world brats that would tear it all down.
@@mikecoote9546 I wasn't talking about Fonterra, I was thinking mainly of the govt, not incentivising the right things, trapping people in an endless cycle of dairy production.
@@mikecoote9546 I think the main problem is that dairy is an environmental disaster, it's atrocious for animal welfare and is increasingly being shown to be terrible for human health. Those are the facts I've seen. It's just taking quite a while for the facts to get out amidst all the dairy industry propaganda. But we're getting there, ay? One step at a time. Great to see this film making headway.
@@scribenz humans have been drink milk for at least 6000 years , most likely longer , if it was bad for us it would have killed us by now.
As a NZ dairy farmer who produces milk sold to Fonterra, this is an interesting watch. Thank you for the time spent investigating and sharing this information.
then please just stop this
its beyond horrible
just imagine what these animals must go through
Thank for being open minded and for giving this a watch. Another good film is Cowspiracy. If you haven't seen that one, I encourage you to give that one a watch too.

Thank you for watching
thank you for watching this!
I’m an ethical vegan for 16 years and till the end of times, my brothers and sisters 🌱✊🏻🍀💚
Kudos! I learned the facts late in life, but I am vegan for good!
Thank you - the animals ❤️
Wow! I wish you all are already active or get active soon! For the animals and the planet! Thank you so much 💚
Good for you! I have been vegan since about 2018 want to stay with it until the end of my life.
Hopefully, by the end of my lifetime, the mainstream food industry will be vegan because of the economic disruptions mentioned in this documentary.
To anyone reading this that thinks its too late, its never fuckin too late to go vegan and any time you start is the best time and will save u from the day you start
I remember as a boy staying on my friend’s dairy farm during calving. They took the calves off their mothers, then all night long and each day, for the 4 days I stayed there, I could hear the cows calling and crying out to their taken babies. You know it’s not right even as a child.
Then I saw the baby calves in pens by the gate, some looked unwell, and were lying on top of each other. I asked my friend’s dad why are they there, and he said they are going to hospital. (They actually go to be killed at the meat works)
As an adult I asked my friend if anything has changed and he said, they still send most the calves at 4 days old to the meat-works. He said the only change is there’s more intensive farming, and they don’t smash them other the head as much. Since the law change in 2014. Prior to that a mallet to kill them was legal. As often it was cheaper to kill them on the farm than send them to the works. He admitted it’s still pretty bad on a dairy farm.
I think it’s an appalling, disgraceful, dirty, cruel, polluting industry. What’s worse it’s all for a product that humans don’t even need.
Thank you for sharing, these eye and ear witness reviews need to be shared. We don't need milk or meat, farm the land with plants and all will thrive
Thank you for speaking about this.
Thanks
It’s cruel beyond words.
Heartbreaking-people should be forced to see what goes on …
So kind of you to release this to the public. Your work, dedication and passion are greatly admired and appreciated. May your message have an effect on the culture and governmental practices in New Zealand...and spread to the rest of the world. Much love from Costa Rica, where we have similar problems.
I was just thinking that New Zealand could show the way for the rest of the countries of the world.
They already showed that a whole country could change from sheep farming to dairy.
Now they need to change again to hemp, pumpkin seeds, etc, as the documentary showed.
Well said!
I don't know what you're thanking them for their just pushing a agenda they're all tied into publish or perish which results in misinformation and and people are just accepting it as a given without questioning they don't care about your health they want people getting sick that keep them in business so misinformation where it's at
I work in healthcare and watch shattered hips from the elderly who have fallen but dutifully consumed dairy all of their lives hoping it would save them from osteoporosis. Shame, shame on the industry.
I noticed something fishy during my yrs of milk
"I work in Healthcare"
old people get brittle bones so that's to be expected that has no bearing on the diet what so ever
@@mw2019Mistisizm only the none organic milk

Some of the major gripes that typical folk might have watching pro-plant based documentaries is that the films can seem to come from an alarmist, confrontational and judgemental angle. For them, seemingly an attempt to shock and shame the viewer into change.
While there is no escaping the hideous truth of this film's subject, I appreciated the care of the writers and production team to present their findings in the least biased method they could. It is always a challenge when the evidence is so damning. The script was calm and inquisitive, and it flowed well between the authentic and engaging stories. While the segments promoting actionable solutions provided hope amongst the dread of reality. The cinematography showing the true cost that the natural beauty, fauna, and livestock of New Zealand has paid for the profit of this industry. Yet I have still left this documentary feeling positive and filled with conviction.
I hope that future documentaries learn a lot from this style of journalistic integrity, in which stepping back slightly from the apocalyptic narrative may resonate positively to a wider audience. I'm very proud of my brothers and sisters across the ditch who were responsible this brilliant documentary.👏
Thank you for this film! I've been vegetarian for about 6 years and my diet has been quite vegan based for about two years now. But this week I thought that it might be time to make the transition to a fully vegan lifestyle. Luckily someone recommended this film so I've had a movie night of watching What the health and this one and there's no going back!
That’s wonderful to hear ☺️☺️

@@alisiademi Thank you for the recommendations!

Incredible film! Thank you! I'm a kiwi ex-pizzeria owner turned vegan and I approve this message!
I approve of this message. I'll never stop drinking milk and eating meat. The Likes of the Seventh Day Adventist Church has caused this bloody mess, with animals. They've been taken off the land for the sake of wheat, soy, sugar, and grains for oil which is unhealthy for humans and animals. Perhaps one day, you'll see it.

I'm a New Zealand former dairy farmers daughter he transitioned to horticulture in the 1970s and helped develop NZs kiwiifruit avocado and tropical fruit industries - I'm vegetarian from childhood I became vegan while living in Europe in 2001 and have been a vegan activist ever since - I love this film even tho it made me cry I've witnessed a lot of this first hand. They missed out bits like farmers in Central Otago going around banging baby calves on the head with a hammer then leaving them in rotting dying piles - male calves and excess females are useless to a farmer - under corporate, agribusiness, Fonterra and exports to China and elsewhere pressure NEW ZEALAND TREATS ITS ANIMALS AND ITS FARMERS LIKE SHIT. WHERE IS THE HELP TO TRANSITION TO PLANT-BASED HORTICULTURE NOW? WHERE ARE THE SUBSIDIES ???? FEDERATED FARMERS Southland was crying out for help to transition its willing farmers from sheep and dairy to oats - but little warm response from govt. The govt fuckery is unbelievable. Suicides among farmers are high simply because they know what they are doing to the environment and animals, but they cannot GET HEARD BY GOVT. BECAUSE GOVT IS IN BED WITH FONTERRA AND CORPORATE SHADOW EXECUTIVES THAT RUN THEM AND LOCAL COUNCILS AND INDUSTRIES. $$$$$$$$$
Crime in plain sight
Thank you for telling your story. I hope this film helps to expose the problems and moves people to make changes. I agree, the farmers need governmental supports to transition to a healthy sustainable enterprise. Stay strong and remember - Hope has two beautiful daughters : Anger and Courage.

Now I'm trying to go full blown activist. I think it's almost better to go "animal liberation activist" rather than, or part and parcel of being vegan. I think avoiding the word vegan however talks more about systemic oppression of animals.

This is absolutely brilliant film. I feel so much more informed about just how comprehensively this is damaging the planet now, great reporting. Information is power.
This documentary should be required viewing in every school - for every child. The world could change rapidly if young minds were educated on the truth - they could save our planet. 🌎🥰.
Excellent idea. Children are receptive to the truth.
I'm looking forward to this. I'm hoping we can make this another big hit for the vegan and plant-based movement. It's up to us to share this with as many people as possible!
I just shared it on FB and all my vegan Friends will be sure to spread it further 💚
Yes yes yes. Hey, btw remember me from Vegan Gaze's livestream yesterday? I ended up actually going to do the activism at Condado in SanJuan🇵🇷. I was successfull, had multiple conversations, hope i did plant that much needed seed in their brains or just watered it because it was already planted by someone else.
Its pretty difficult to convince people in New Zealand to stop sucking off a cow - but the countryside is wrecked because of animal agriculture. Transitioning to plant-based has not been a popular view - but where I've seen it done it changes the landscape - in a good way.
Been sharing it too. I could not agree more
@Trouble I found a meatflake! ⬆️
Going vegan for me was the most poweful individual decision I’ve ever try. Justice for the beings 🐟🐄🐓🐖🐑🐝🦐🐊🪱🐇🐌
It's not as simple as that. The demand for human foods of any kind is driven by the population - there are always demands on the land, air and water. Shifting to veganism just puts more and different stressors on the ecosystem. Also, a world where animals hold no economic value could turn into a world without any animals - think about that for a second. This is a very complex issue, with humans at its center. Perhaps we need to explore (as has been done before) whether or not and how much humans need to consume
@@susanwoodward7485 I am worried that you have watched Milked and are still very confused in your thinking. I can try and relate to you by remembering about ten years ago my sister saying to me that people have a huge disconnect about what they are eating. Also my friend telling me about the baby calf veal industry and that drinking milk supports the dairy industry. These were concepts that I had never heard of or thought about. You may be at the very beginning of learning so many things about the exploitation of animals and the marketing lies. If you are able to make the connection one day, it will be like the ‘wool’ has been pulled away from your eyes. 💚
@@breninaotearoa4152 I think you misunderstood me. I have been opposed to Big/Ag industrial farming and the mistreatment of farm animals for decades, along with general raping of the land, forests, waterways and oceans that has been the legacy of at least the last 100 years. My point is that undisciplined, unrealized, ego-driven human beings in general are the problem. Do not be manipulated into believing that synthetic foods will alter the problem. GMO monoculture feed-stock crops for genetically-engineered fermentation bacteria and yeasts will generated an even more dysfunctional landscape and environmental degradation.
@@susanwoodward7485 😫 It’s not complex. Just stop eating animals.
What are your canine teeth for?
Once I saw the misery of what dairy cows are put through, the truth behind the lies there was no more turning a blind eye or making excuses. Been vegan for the animals for twelve years, would never ever go back!
It is probably the most cruel of the animal agriculture industries.
It often contributes to veal.
Come to. my dairy farm and see how happy they are.
Veganism is good for the animals, the planet and people. It's a win-win-win. 💚👍
Do you mean after we kill off the extra cows because they're not need it and no one to care for them

@@josephdennison4890 Gotta end somewhere lol this is a pretty dumb point to bring up tbh
@@josephdennison4890 Uneducated statement. Less demand, less cows forced into existence, no need for culling.
Absolutely. Win win win.
That farmer is wrong… I DO think about the farmer’s livelihood. They need to find other types of sustainable farming or go out of business. The. End.
Edit: that one guy said “just because there’s a market for something doesn’t make it right” is spot on. There are markets for child trafficking, but no one supports providing children for it 🤷♀️
Markets are created when they see a profit. Examples enough
@@ikvangalen6101 what’s that got to do with what they said? Profit doesn’t make it right.
It never does!
@@ikvangalen6101 the dairy industry isn't making a profit anyhow and it's been on a huge decline. Then there's also the fact that the process of impregnating the cattle is enough to cause ptsd first hand and that the cows are pumped full of soo many antibiotics because they're always pregnant and always having an infection. Yea that's right milk drinkers, that's not milk that's fucking puss. You're drinking a large amount of boiled puss.
This film is IMPORTANT. Let's hope it doesn't just preach to the converted.
It's so wild that humans are still drinking milk!! People are so willingly ignorant for their current convenience and comfort.
Some drink milk. I only use cream, butter and hard cheese.
It's healthy for you.
People are not willingly ignorant. They have been raised thinking it was ok. The loudest voice says it’s good for you and the people that know better call them ignorant 🤦🏻♀️
They not ignorant they just don't know any better yet but after watching this movie we will all know better or then we are ignorant. Kia Ora
A lot of people don’t like to be “different “. They like to do what they are familiar with. The norm if you will. Some are very hard to change. That’s why the more people that switch, it will hopefully be the norm one day and that’s how you will change the minds of the hardest to reach. I know many people like this and it is definitely frustrating.
@@MsPants1632 I like breathing fresh air, because that's what I'm familiar with, and thee are different people like to smoke. Should I go against "the norm" and smoke too?
Regardless of what the substance is, with regards to animal products and animal byproducts, we consume what we physiologically crave. Milk is a nutritious byproduct. We actually crave the fats for energy and the proteins for strength.
Listen to your body, and you won't go wrong.
This all seems to be common sense to me now! But, "You don't know what you don't know" and there was a time when I didn't know about the horrors of animal agriculture. It does piss me off, though, when people acknowledge the truth but are unwilling to change their habits! The message is spreading and people are becoming conscious -- slowly, very slowly! The world has no choice except to WAKE UP before it's too late.
Soon after I became vegan I had a striking realization - "You mean to tell me that eating this way is not only healthier, but it's better for the planet, and ALL THOSE ANIMALS didn't need to die?" I was pissed off. 😡 Because you realize that what they told us as kids, was a lie. They told us that "milk does a body good." but it really not good at all. It gives kids inflammation, allergies, diabetes, and cancers..... it couldn't be farther from the truth. So can we all sue them?
@@drunkvegangal8089 That suuuucks. I heard that most kids have that same reaction. When I was young we had some ducks as pets, and my mom would take the duck eggs and cook them for breakfast. Me and my sister told her that we refused to eat those eggs. But she tricked us, she would still use the eggs to make cookies and fed them to us. Dogmatic propaganda is strong, but your parents couldn't teach you what they themselves didn't know. And this innate human behavior proves that eating animal flesh in any form is not inherently human. We were designed to eat plants. Even the shape of our teeth proves it.
Brilliant film, thank you for this important work! Let’s fight to give dignity to the beautiful animals on this planet!
It’s an interesting dilemma for the animals though, if we no longer “need” cows will they be eradicated from the planet??
@@ChrisHPSNZ Well it is certainly possible that the domesticated cow species would go extinct due to the fact they would struggle to survive in most wild places given their genetic mutation. However, the increasing of wild spaces would allow for the revitilisation of many other species and it is likely that a transition to plant-based agriculture would certainly increase the numbers of wild cattle types such as the buffalo and bison. I also have the quiet hope that we could perhaps choose wild locations that their presence would have a positive impact on the ecosystem and hope they survive, or even try and reverse genetic engineer them so they can survive once more (though I'm not sure there is much chance of that)
I´m blown away by this insight. I gave up meat almost 4yrs ago after spending a weekend on a friend´s diary farm, it was calving season and we hand-fed the calves that had just been born and taken away from their mother. Their practice was according to standards but very disturbing for someone who has never stayed on a commercial farm. This really answered some of the questions that I had not the courage to ask.
So excited for this to be released! Educating people is the only way for change. I’m so thankful I educated myself almost one year ago and I feel amazing! WFPB 100% 🎉🎉🎉🇨🇦
WFPB, that’s “Whole Food Plant Based”. Say it loud and say it proud. I’m seventy two and I’ve been on a WFPB diet for 5 yrs and have never felt better. It’s the cheapest most beneficial diet.
The benefits of switching to a purely plant based diet are amazing.
1-Your own health (vegans are less likely to get several deadly chronic diseases)
2-Helping to end animal agriculture would reduce the chance of another pandemic & other zoonotic diseases
3-Helping to end animal ag would reduce the chance of the development of an antibiotic resistant pathogen.
4-Animal ag wastes a huge amount of fresh water
5-Animal ag is a major cause of water pollution
6-Animal ag is a major cause of deforestation
7-Animal ag increases PTSD and spousal abuse in the people who work in slaughterhouses
8-Animal ag is a major cause of the loss of habitat and biodiversity
9-Animal welfare, obviously
10- It is the single most effective way for each of us to fight climate change and environmental degradation.
11- Longer lifespan.
12- Healthier weight (vegans were the only dietary group in the Adventist Studies that had an average BMI in the recommended range.)
13- A vegan world would result in 8 million fewer annual deaths, and save $1.5 trillion in health care costs, according to an Oxford Study.

2. It’s healthy AND delicious
3. It’s the best diet for the environment

Watching this, even as a vegan, makes me want to cry. I already knew what dairy does to the planet, to people and mostly, to the animals, but each time I see something like this my mind boggles how can people be so selfish, stupid and short sighted.
Yes I know what you feel, I feel it the way when they take the vegetables of the land and cut those poor crops and those vegans are vegetable killers, everytime I see the vegetables poorly in the store I try to comfort them en cry with them. They treat the vegetables so poorly, shame for the farmers who do this to the crops.

It's not we farm, but the way we farm. Look at regen ag, wholistic approaches are needed to set things straight
I went hiking around Queenstown two months ago. All the hiking trails were surrounded by cattle&sheep pastures.
The findings regarding water pollution match up with what I saw there. All the trails I went to were stinky and littered with manure.
I wanted to see some trees but there weren't many and the few that existed seemed to be withering away.
Sad. Animal ag is a major cause of deforestation.
Ya I know I live close to some and no trees zero my property is the only 1 with trees.
These plant documentaries need to be in every hospital, doctors office, school and church and home and grocery stores , gyms and many other areas as MANDATORY practices and education!

Excellent! I hesitate to recommend documentaries like Cowspiracy and What the Health to folks because they’re so melodramatic. But this documentary is calm, cool and collected while still imparting important information. I will highly recommend to all of my Baby Boomer milk drinking friends!
@ExcessivePoison Boomer vegan here.
I made the change for good about 5 years ago.
Better late than never. Like most vegans, I now wish I had learned the truth sooner.
Yes I’ve not managed to get through any of those other ones - but this one was so different
Melodramatic? Those documentaries are just showing the horrific truth
True, but to convince someone they’ve been wrong (fooled) their whole life and taking away something they enjoy eating can be a bit too much for people to take in. Better to peel the onion layer by layer.
For me it started with Game changers and the book How not to die. After eating WFPB for a while I went for the inner layer, Dominion. You can never unsee the horror and there is just no way to go back to eating animal products after watching it. For me personally it is the most important documentary I have ever seen and changed me forever.
I see Milked as a great eye opener that approaching veganism from the environment perspective. I came from the health perspective of WFPB, but no matter where you start from I’m sure what makes people stay vegan is the Ethics of animal welfare.
Continue to spread the truth and help people take the next step to understand the horror of animal farming, as well as the benefits of WFPB!
Peace!
Such a well formulated documentary .
Learned alot about the new furthering solutions and alternatives to break the age old conditioning to just accept whats being going for decades as the norm and start questioning the labels and greenwashing thats been happening. As the demand grows for plant based alternatives and increasing awareness of the unnecessary cruelty going on ,hope there truly occurs a market trauma leading to a shift of the collective mindsets and lifestyles.
This film was great! I can only hope the predictions about the dairy industry decline turn out to be correct. There will be a lot less suffering in this world.
Its going yippee, saw a thing from USA they are making milk in vats it costs $.10 for a bottle or something and no cows needed, can't wait for this to come to NZ
truly eye opening - I haven’t used dairy products in over a year-- was always grossed out by cheese -- so happy I became aware of the negative impacts -- environmentally - and especially for our health! Can’t wait to see dairy become obsolete !
me too! I never drank that much milk growing up and never liked cheese or chocolate. People always thought I was weird, but it sure made it easy for me to go vegan.
In a way, you're lucky!
Most people find quitting cheese the hardest part of switching to a purely plant based diet.

Go vegan everybody. For the animals, the planet and our health.

Never 🖕
It’s horribly unhealthy, unsustainable and saves zero animals. You’ve been conned.
I have no problem meeting me I will never become a vegetarian or a vegan my wife always jokes and says what are the plants feeling every time we eat a plant she says are they feeling just like the animals belt I totally remember plants can't have feelings we can eat them all we want because if they did there'd be no vegetarians
Don't be daft. Reduce or cycle fish, poultry and animal meat sure but do not totally eliminate. Humans need certain foodstuffs ( oils, proteins, amino acids etc) for bodily health.
Fantastic ❤️ Thank you for this film and standing up against what is clearly wrong and needs changed!
I've been vegan since 2019. It is one of the best decisions I have ever done. I wish I had done it sooner. I am fitter now than I have ever been and I no longer have diabetes 2, and high blood pressure.
Because being vegan means you have to actually consider your diet carefully. Same results can be acienved with an omnivore diet.
I signed the petition, of course, but please consider moving the last paragraph to the top, so maybe more people will sign it...there's a lot of reading to do before getting to the gist of the petition...the paragraph I think needs to move from the bottom to the top: "Support our campaign to reduce the United States dairy herd 25% by 2025* as part of a global effort to reduce the devastating impacts of dairy worldwide. MILKED will deliver this petition to world leaders at COP27. Together we can change this."
Signed! This is going to be hard to watch. 😢
Most people feel hopeful by the end!
Thank you!
@@MILKED excellent!
This was so informative for me!!!!!
I gave up meat 2yrs ago but still eat cheese & eggs as I cannot digest bean/lentils etc so made up more protein with cheese etc…
I make my own almond/hemp milk BUT…. this has made me more determined to give up the dairy… I just love animals and the planet far too much. I cannot hide anymore behind the thought of “I’m not killing any animal for cheese”…
I wish this would get more on mainstream because if society really knew what went on, the majority would change!!!!
Thank you so much for teaching me more informed knowledge…💗
Good on you! Great to hear
@@isaacperal9778 👍👍👍
That still leaves nuts, seeds, and whole grains for good sources of protein. Peanuts, and peanut butter are amazing nutritional powerhouses. I forget the name, but Indonesia makes a tempeh from peanuts. You might want to check into it.
Cheese has casomorphin, which is mildly addictive. I weened myself off of it by switching to Cheetos for the flavor, and just enough casomorphin to keep me from giving in and eating pure cheese. I then ate less and less. Now I love nutritional yeast instead of Parmesan, and when I get the urge, I eat Hippeas, a plant based version of Cheetos. Delicious! Just as tasty.
I wonder if you could digest miso, or tempeh, since they are fermented versions of soy. Have you tried tofu? Don't fear soy, like I used to. The Japanese people have used it as a staple for many generations. They have the longest lifespan of any country.
@@someguy2135 I really appreciate your response so thank you 🙏…. I went vegan years ago but ended up eating chicken, fish, eggs & cheese after a couple of years because my digestive system was so messed up ;with lentils, beans) so this time, I haven’t eaten those (I tried for a week but same problems with extreme gas, bloating) so I know for sure I just cannot digest them. This is one of the major problems for many and that is why they go back to eating meat. I’m trying my hardest to stay meat free as I just love animals so much, so I have been eating pea protein, buckwheat, amaranth, quinoa, eggs, nuts, seeds, tempeh (I seem to be fine with), peas, edamame and nutritional yeast plus veg… I make my own milk and soak then dehydrate nuts (which has been fine on my digestion)… I am trying to know cut the cheese first and will follow your advice and see how it all goes. I will probably still eat eggs, just until I know I’m fine with everything else and my digestion settles and then try removing eggs… this doesn’t really get acknowledged that much in the vegan society, which is such a shame because so many more people would transition if they could digest, beans, pulses, lentils… I’m doing everything in my power to overcome this, whilst still taking full care of my nutrition, health and well being.. if I can make this a success without those things, then so many more will know it is sustainable. Not really tried tofu and will definitely do it. I need to find more ways to use tofu also… I’m pleased with how I’ve gone these last 2yrs without any meat, so I know for sure I’m fine without it… just need to master my protein input, as this will then enable me to cut the eggs for sure…I’m actually not that bothered with the taste of cheese, for me, it was the protein from the cheese, which upped my grams… so just the eggs now and hopefully not for long 🙏
Sprouted lentils provide protein 👍 all micro greens and sprouts contain tons of amino acids and other minerals. Yes cooked beans can be hard on the body
Being of age and how to manage the sequence of returns in those early periods is what seems quite scary in the current market. The market is never a loser in the twenty year cycle, but the 2000s decade scenario scares me and could really disrupt my retirement. When you're no longer accumulating but withdrawing, it's hard to be anything but cautious.
Some investors look to their investments as a source of income while others use it as a means to grow or preserve their wealth.

Hello!!,
I'm pleased to meet investors of Diana Lynne Bobka. I recently ventured into investing with her undertaking trades on my behalf. She has been of great help and her tutelage has brought me to a higher understanding of profit generation.
As a child, I had to deal with parents, brother, and aunts trying to get me to drink milk and eat eggs 'for my own good.'
I'm so glad now that I didn't like the taste of either.
I wasn't allowed to leave the dinner table until I'd finished my glass of 2% milk. Ew.
My acne reduced by 90% by leaving dairy, achieved great weight loss, improved my digestion like I could digest dirt, guilt reduced by 100% for the animal cruelty I was part of and much more. There is no other way, quit it now or reduce it by huge huge percent.
I stopped all dairy 1 month ago but haven't seen any change in my oily skin and scalp yet to be honest.

Thank you, PBN & everyone involved with this film. 💓🙏 Dairy was the last animal product I gave up 25 years ago, when I went vegan (I was Vegetarian before that because I was taught that we had to have dairy and I believed it). Prior to 1997, I used to eat dairy cheese every single day, if I could easily stop eating dairy cheese, I think anyone can do it. As soon as I learned that I did not have to eat dairy/cheese, that was it for me. I'm so glad it's so easy to share that information now, in ways like this/film. 💕

thank you for doing this, I know this film could have been made in so many other countries that also shares a deeply entrenched dairy habit. I live in Chile and it is so infuriating to see how they get away with big lies and keep people in the dark. Truth will come out strong in the end and we will someday leave this all in the past I'm sure
Habit or culture?
Dairy is fucking disgusting so sad seeing that farmer who is basically forced to dairy cows when he clearly knows it is wrong. And ppl say what would these farmers be doing....happily anything else I can tell you. This shit is fucked up.
As an Asian vegan, I really bad watching this because while I read and watch about dairy industry going down in the West, they just diversify and move their operations here. The animals and the planet don't have a chance unless we all wake up from this! 😭

Very eye opening, educational, and heart wrenching all at the same time. I am the only plant based eater at home, but this really impresses upon me the need to stop buying animal products all together, especially dairy, if my family is to experience the same benefits I have, by moving away from these animal products.
"do you think we're putting our future food security at risk?" [vocalized pause, nervous laughter..] "yeah."
“We value transparency…… uhm I’ll pass on that question” lmao didn’t even try to spin it!
You can see why none of the other companies would agree to the interview on camera.
Dairy does not stand up to scrutiny.
Dairy may be the ruler of the NZ economy, but the Emperor has no clothes!
It's interesting I haven't seen or heard a milk industry advertisement for ages and just today in a short 20 minute drive I heard the same one twice pushing the myth that milk makes your bones stronger. And I thought to myself gee I hope the plant-based industry is putting pressure on them that they have to try and start advertising. GO PLANT-BASED INDUSTRY!!!!!
So Fonterra sells Plant based milk? Oh never mind, it’s just regular cows milk on a container thats says “plant based” (cause apparently the container is what’s plant based) That’s not misleading at all… 🤦🏽♂️
Deserves to go viral, and have the impact of Cowspiracy or Seaspiracy. First class filmmaking.
I'm in Canterbury and haven't drunk tap water for years, cloudy nitrate water yuck. Also I'm glad I became lactose intolerant as a teen, milk is baby cow growth formula that gives us osteoporosis. Avoid cow milk at all costs, drink plant milk. Almond milk, rice milk, coconut milk, oat milk yum. Big like for this awesome documentary 🌱👍
Nothing is more valuable than fresh water!
I have been boycotting dairy for years. I will be vegan for the rest of my life!
I spend a lot of time educating others about the facts that led me to make the change for good.
This was exceptional. It covered the problem from all angles, which should help the film reach a broader audience, and will hopefully make people more accepting of the information.
A timely and urgent documentary. I'm from Southland, the heart of the sheep farming industry back then but these days covered in dairy farms, and I grew up eating meat with every meal. At the age of 25, the cognitive dissonance got too much and I went vegetarian (for the animals) and once I found out that calves were killed to produce dairy (thanks to SAFE) I went vegan overnight. That was 25 years ago. Best decision I ever made. If this guy from Gore can do it, anybody can. Now raising my son vegan and for him the idea of eating an animal or drinking milk from a cow is totally bizarre. I think every New Zealander should watch this film and stop turning a blind eye to the misery and environmental degradation caused by our biggest industry. I now live in Berlin and when I tell people over here that two thirds of New Zealand's waterways are unsafe for swimming, largely thanks to big dairy, and we have the highest proportion of threatened native species in the world, they are in shock. Meanwhile the government's new Emissions Reduction Plan (ERP) does very little to address the problem and is basically a free pass to the dairy industry. I urge all my fellow NZers to take a stand against dairy. Stop buying the damned stuff (oat milk is a great replacement), share and talk about this film and petition the government to take more action: petition.act.greenpeace.org.nz/agriculture-climate-action-plan
Chris looks like a young Morpheus. Wake ’em up, buddy. Thanks for putting this information out there for us.
Thank you for this documentary. I have learned a lot and finishing with dairy immediately.
Thank you Chris. This has made changing so much easier. I have been making the lifestyle change over the last year. Now I’m in boots and all. Great movie, you are a special person to be willing to do what you have. Well done
2 years vegan.
Thank you for great insight into a horrendous industry. And the farmers involved 🐄
Just switched to the plant based life style and loving it!!!
Welcome to the happy bunch :) I promise you, seven years on there is only one thing I regret, not doing it sooner :) Enjoy it, because it's the best thing you could have done :)
Great documentary - I watched Cowspiracy about 4 years ago and became vegan 6 months later - I'll be 70 next month, its never too late to change / wake up.
Why are we doing this? It's madness. Just pick something else to drink.
The Bible got one thing right- The love of money is the root of all evil.
Thanks for all you did for animals, the planet, and us, yes I am a proud vegan since 2012.
Drinking a fine glass of plant-based milk with coffee and watching this masterpiece
I love my smoothies made with plant based milk.
Eating a steak with a glass of chocolate milk 👍
Great documentary ! I personally stoped consuming dairy products a few years ago.
Every single one of these vegan documentaries I watch, I feel more and more proud and happy for becoming vegan🌱♥️
Its called confirmation bias, I would be happy to offer some viewing that would lead you the other way, but you of course would not watch them.
there is no other argument, your going to hell based off who you are.
I turned vegan with lots of difficulties faced. But i made through it. Proud of me and everyone who take this initiative.💖
Great film - important insights and a must-watch for anyone who still consumes dairy. 🙌🙌
Fancy meeting you here. 🙃
This needs to go viral! So tiring to always be made out as extreme in my views because I’m plant based like how much longer do we have to go before the narrative is changed??
We don’t need milk 🥛😆😆😆😆
I can't thank you enough for this Documentary. Truly life changing
Cool beans! So many friendly and healthier alternatives; soy milk, pea milk, potato, oat milk, hemp milk, rice milk, cashew, almond, banana milk, flax milk, hazelnut, macadamia, coconut milk, pistachio, walnut, mama's milk,
and friendliest of all no milk.
Excellent documentary. Thank you so much, Chris and team, and PBN for premiering it. I think taste will be the weapon of stealth. If dairy and meats can be fermented or otherwise made without animals, animal agriculture will be over like that! The ethical issues of animal rights and environmental destruction will be addressed on a public level and the health issues (relating to the amount of plants one eats, etc.) will become a personal choice. Planting hemp to reduce nitrogen in the soil will then prepare the soil for other crops like oats to make oat milk and there will be much less emotion around all of this because people's traditional tastes for meat and dairy will have been satisfied thanks to fermentation, 3D printed meat (e.g. Redefine Meat) and other technologies.
@ExcessivePoison Exactly. I was reading about that issue in Canada lately. Absolutely horrendous.
Congratulations on the excellent documentary! I had never heard of this RethinkX project and I feel a lot more hopeful about the future now! I've been vegan for 8 years and I'm never going back to animal protein, but I'm glad those who wish to continue eating 'real' dairy can do so without destroying our wonderful planet.
