"Dairy industry exposes India’s cattle protection contradiction" An interesting story: <🐮> Cow protection and dairy industry: Cows have long stood at the centre of the nation’s religious and political conflicts. In the name of Hindu sentiment, cow protection has often been used against Dalits and Muslims through vigilante violence, mob lynching, and legal harassment over alleged beef consumption. It has served less as animal welfare than as a tool of communal power. This year, ahead of Eid al-Adha, something unexpected happened. Several Muslim community organisations voluntarily announced they would not slaughter cows during the festival and urged a complete national ban on cow slaughter. Islamic practices as observed neither prohibit cow sacrifice nor beef consumption. The gesture is explicitly political and shows an attempt to defuse tension and demonstrate goodwill. Thanks to @Sentientism@toot.community for pointing it out. https://www.policycircle.org/opinion/dairy-industry-cattle-protection/ #goVegan #India #cow #cattle #dairy

NEW: An Indian Billionaire Was Targeted by Trump. Then He Poured Money Into a Startup Secretly Backed by Donald Trump Jr. An obscure Texas firm secretly connected to the president’s son said it received at least $100 million from Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Industries.

#India But extreme heat means cows eat less, make less milk, struggle to conceive and produce fewer live offspring, experts say, while farmers spend more trying to keep animals cool & fertile. “Milk production falls by nearly 30% during extreme heat,” Bharadwaj said, describing how falling output & rising cooling costs were steadily eating into his earnings https://kuwaittimes.com/article/44369/business/as-farmers-fight-climate-change-heat-tests-indias-record-milk-production/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #environment #climate #climate
