Sacred Cow: The Nutritional, Environmental and Ethical Case for Better Meat

The film perfectly reflects the contradictory views in the public consciousness. It is not easy to navigate between them, in this it helps to find the right path, following the principle of striving for balance in nature.

Dear Diana and Rob. And all the people involved.

What an amazing, sober, informative, thought provoking and giving film you have made. I am proud to have supported you and will gladly share this essential message to everyone I know. Also the vegan ones 😊. I look so much forward to this spreading across the world. It's a really important message and I sense you are driving one of the most important movements in our time.

Thank you!

Dear Diana and Robb and all participants to this wonderful movie,

Thank you for your hard work.

I consider regenerative agriculture to be one of the most important movements in our lifetime, and this movie makes the case in a beautiful, thoughtful and loving manner. As Frederic Leroy has so pointedly demonstrated with his research on the concerted efforts by the ideological driven anti-meat movement represented by the World Economic Forum and the EATLANCET folks, we are up against a well-oiled, well financed propaganda machine. I speak to you as an ex-vegan who had been influenced by what Nina Teicholz's paradigm shifting book The Big Fat Surprise has shown to be pseudo-science; the fallacy that meat is harmful. I still at times struggle with the reality that industrial livestock operations are extremely harmful to both cattle and the environment, and it's a moral tradeoff at times. This movie really makes the point that things can be done differently, no, need to be done differently or else we will all fail. I am grateful to all of you for your efforts, I am sure often at great personal costs, to educate the world how we can do better, for all of our sakes.

This movie debunks the Vegan propaganda about animal agriculture being the biggest culprit behind global warming & land desertification. The truth is that ruminant animals revitalize & restore land damaged by industrial farming & help sequester carbon in the soil. Several farmers & even some prominent ex-Vegans are interviewed in the documentary. Facts are provided to show that meat IS a healthy choice for human consumption -- we've been eating meat for more than 3 millions years! Animal foods contain at least 10 essential nutrients that are simply not available from plants. But you have to raise those cows, pigs & sheep outside on pasture, the way nature intended, in order to regenerate the land & produce healthy, nutritious meat for us to eat.

I am very interested in the topic of food production, and one of the issues is the fact that it has become a plant vs meat battle, that is being played out via media, social media and various other platforms for propaganda.

Being single minded or closed minded is never going to solve anything. All conflicts are eventually solved by dialogue and some give and take. The plant based activists need to realise that there is an environmental cost, a loss of life cost and a personal health cost to their diet, and that eating small amounts of meat that was raised in a natural environment is actually a win on all of these levels.

From a farming perspective, farmers and more importantly governments and multi national corporations need to realise that how a large proportion of farming is currently being done is also wrong from an environmental perspective, from a loss of life perspective and from a health perspective. So when you look at these opposed stand points, the negative realities of both sides are actually very similar.

So if you could stop the gesturing and pontification, the solution is fairly simple - produce food as nature intended, let nature repair the environment, stimulate life and provide healthy nutritious food regardless of whether it is plant or meat based. This film is a good step in the right direction.
