Vegan alternatives to cow's milk
Swap matrix
Use these instead
soya milk
oat milk
almond milk
Why the swap works
It does exactly the same job in coffee, cooking and baking, with no change in method.
The numbers
Swapping one kilo saves about 2.2 kg CO₂e. Do it once a week for a year and you avoid roughly 29 kg CO₂e — the same as driving a petrol car 145 km.
