Oh, you're a fact free vegan. Cool.

Most plant milks are horrible for the environment from both a natural resources standpoint and a ecological sustainability standpoint, and any brownie points they get for not off-gassing when they're on the tree/stalk are more than lost in the process of shipping them around the world so vegans in Minnesota and London can enjoy their Almond Dream. Unlike cows and goats, you can't grow almonds and coconuts anywhere at any time of year.

When you factor in the human rights violations inherent in producing your superior vegan food, suddenly your moral high ground is a graveyard full of dead migrants and indigenous children who died of starvation.

Drink your plant milk because you prefer the taste. If you're concerned about climate change, support your local agriculture and help elect politicians that will hold the oil companies and other corporations accountable for their actions.

I always wonder why people don't consider just... not drinking any milk at all?

I once new a guy who thought it was just so weird that people drank milk as a beverage at all and wouldn't drink any kind of milk, including plant milk, because he thought that was equally weird as drinking cow's milk. It made me realize it is kind of weird. Yes, there is the calcium, but if you're drinking calcium-fortified plant milk, why not just drink water and take a supplement? It's the same thing.

Animal milk and plant milk are not exactly equivalent in cooking, anyway, given that plant milk doesn't have the acidity of cow's milk. I'm not a chemist or trained chef so I can't say exactly when it matters if you swap, but I do know from experience that if you are making pancakes with a little baking soda as a leavener, they won't rise as much if you use plant milk. You have to add a little lemon juice or other acid and at that point, why use plant milk at all? Just use water. If you need to add some fat, use a bit of vegetable oil. (I don't think most plant milks are as fatty as whole cow's milk, anyway, except for the kind of coconut milk that isn't meant for drinking, which is probably still not equivalent because I bet it's more fatty!) You can cook oatmeal with water, too.

Obviously, that doesn't account for things like what you pour over your dry cereal or put in your coffee or cheese. But, as they say, there is no such thing as truly ethical grocery shopping anyway, so everyone just do your best within the bounds of what makes sense for where you live, what taste you like, what you can afford, and your own dietary needs and sense of morality.
