and
,
It
seems
that
every
day
is
now
a
dedicated
'World
Day'
for
something
.
Obviously
you
have
those
that
are
more
officially
recognised
but
then
there's
a
vast
range
of
World
Days
that
seem
,
let's
say
,
less
serious
.
For
example
,
I
don't
know
about
you
,
but
I'm
not
too
bothered
about
remembering
when
'World
Nutella
Day'
is
.
With
a
quick
Google
search
I
found
out
that
this
week
we
have
'World
Say
Something
Nice
Day'
,
and
'World
Insect
Repellent
Awareness
Day'
,
whatever
that
is
.
Well
I've
got
another
date
for
your
diaries
.
You
,
like
myself
,
were
probably
blissfully
unaware
that
yesterday
,
the
1st
of
June
marked
'World
Plant
Milk
Day'
but
I'd
like
to
to
plant
milk
,
and
I'm
going
to
five
why
you
should
perhaps
switch
to
,
or
at
least
try
,
plant
milk
.
Plant
milk
has
been
consumed
for
centuries
in
various
cultures
,
both
as
a
regular
drink
(
such
as
the
Spanish
horchata
)
and
as
a
substitute
for
dairy
milk
.
The
most
popular
varieties
include
soy
milk
,
coconut
milk
,
almond
milk
,
and
rice
milk
.
In
my
experience
,
plant
milks
are
now
readily
available
in
supermarkets
all
around
the
world
.
The
why
you
should
drink
plant
milk
is
that
it's
better
for
the
planet
.
Animal
agriculture
is
the
leading
cause
of
greenhouse
gas
emissions
.
By
switching
from
dairy
milk
to
a
plant
-
based
milk
,
you
can
decrease
your
carbon
footprint
,
as
the
plant
varieties
create
up
to
80%
less
carbon
emissions
.
My
to
drink
plant
milk
is
that
it's
better
for
the
animals
.
Just
like
human
beings
,
cows
make
milk
for
their
offspring
.
In
order
for
people
to
drink
dairy
products
,
baby
cows
are
taken
away
from
their
mothers
.
Male
calves
are
then
often
killed
at
a
few
days
old
.
Choosing
plant
-
based
milks
therefore
means
that
you
can
help
end
the
suffering
of
millions
of
cows
and
their
calves
each
year
.
Now
,
if
you're
not
convinced
by
saving
the
planet
or
the
animals
,
maybe
you'd
consider
saving
yourself
.
Plant
-
based
milk
is
better
for
you
.
More
and
more
research
is
debunking
the
myth
that
humans
need
cows'
milk
.
The
dairy
industry
has
long
promoted
the
idea
that
milk
is
essential
for
healthy
bones
.
The
statistics
however
do
not
back
this
up
:
the
countries
with
the
highest
dairy
intake
are
also
the
ones
with
the
highest
levels
of
osteoporosis
.
You
don't
need
cow's
milk
for
calcium
either
?
Good
plant
-
based
sources
include
broccoli
,
kale
,
figs
,
Brazil
nuts
almonds
,
and
sesame
seeds
.
My
to
drink
plant
milk
is
that
it's
better
for
your
wallet
.
It's
cheap
!
Plant
-
based
milk
has
the
added
advantage
that
you
can
make
it
yourself
!
And
it's
so
easy
!
If
you
want
to
make
rice
milk
for
example
,
you
simply
soak
the
rice
overnight
and
then
put
it
in
a
blender
with
water
.
Then
you
can
add
sweetener
and
vanilla
extract
to
taste
.
My
to
drink
plant
milk
is
a
simple
one
:
it's
delicious
!
