Milk Vs Mylk - Are Plant Based Alternatives Really More Sustainable?Over the last 10 years, the global vegan community has grown considerably, with more people switching from meat and dairy to plant-based alternatives for health, ethical and environmental reasons. After spending seven months living in the UK and working in agriculture, I began to notice the growing popularity of soy and almond 'mylk' alternatives; two crops which don't grow in the temperate maritime climate of the United Kingdom. I started to wonder whether ditching the dairy in the UK and swapping traditional cow's milk for plant-based alternatives really was more sustainable and less resource intensive.
