Joaquin Phoenix on dairy farming: “Then we take her milk that’s intended for her calf and we put it in our coffee and our cereal.”
Joaquin Phoenix took aim at dairy farming in his Oscars speech for Best Actor in a Leading Role for “Joker.” “We go into the natural world and we plunder it for its resources. We feel entitled to artificially inseminate a cow and steal her baby, even though her cries of anguish are unmistakable,” he said. “Then we take her milk that’s intended for her calf and we put it in our coffee and our cereal.
Kim O’Brien, a spokesperson for the cooperative, told MarketWatch in an email, “The decrease in sales was primarily due to low milk prices, which are derived from global dairy commodity prices. In fact, DFA marketed similar volumes of milk in 2018 versus 2017 .” “People change their diets for a lot of reasons: to bring an end to animal farming, to fight for a livable climate, to promote health and personal growth, to be kind," according to the Sentient Media report. “There is no right answer here. The way we choose to eat will likely change a number of times over the course of our lives, and that’s okay. Ethical eating works like a spectrum, one that is trending towards compassion.
Farmers aim for higher conception rates, increased semen value and controlling transfer of reproductive diseases. Phoenix and other critics of dairy farming argue that it treats the animals like they’re machines.
