Take Action » Pledge to be dairy-free!

By choosing to go dairy-free, you will spare calves from slaughter, and their mothers the pain of having their babies taken away.

Dairy's dark secret may leave a sour taste in your mouth...

Hundreds of thousands of week-old bobby calves are killed as 'waste products' of this industry each year — just so humans can drink their mothers' milk.

Many people are surprised to learn that dairy cows are kept almost continually pregnant, only to have their calves removed and milk harvested for human consumption. You can stand up against the cruelty of the dairy industry by pledging to go dairy-free, opting instead for readily available calcium-rich dairy alternatives that are kind to calves.

SIGN THE PLEDGE

“I don't believe that any animal deserves to be treated as a 'waste product' — to be discarded and killed just days after birth. I pledge to be dairy-free to help end the cruelty of the dairy industry.”
