Great insight in the milk industry

This is great educative documentary that covers everything from how milk is made these days (from small to big-scale production but with a focus on the major industries) to the impact the industry has on farmers, invironment and people's perception of milk. It makes you think twice of your own consumption and shows a face of milk production rather covered up from the everyday consumer. Take the chance and educate yourself if you're a milk-drinker!
