In fact, did you know dairy provides nearly 20% of the protein in American diets and more than 50% of our calcium and vitamin D, yet is only responsible for 2% of the U.S. carbon footprint?  And since 2007 alone they have been able to produce milk using a 19% smaller carbon footprint, 30% less water, and 21% less land!  Those are some mooo-ving statistics!  To learn more visit Dairy Sustainability | American Dairy Association North East
