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

"In recent times, the consumption of red meat has sparked a wide debate with vast arguments for and against it, ranging from environmentalism to nutrition and ethics towards animals, among many others. With so much information –and let’s face it, also misinformation driven by particular agendas– it is easy to get lost in all the noise. 'Sacred Cow' is a documentary directed by a nutritionist and author, Susan Rodgers, and perhaps that could give rise to some informational bias. However, the documentary also touches on several relevant and rarely addressed points about animal ethics and cruelty –especially the fact that agriculture in all its forms inevitably leads to the death of animals– but from them it proposes solutions and alternatives for the benefit of life, in all its forms."
