Strategic CSR - Cows


Welcome back to the Strategic CSR Newsletter!
The first newsletter of the Spring semester is below.
As always, your comments and ideas are welcome.
 

This statistic blew my mind when I read it in the article in the url below:

"The average dairy cow in America produces 30 litres of milk a day; a cow in Africa, only 1.6."

Such a disparity speaks volumes, in my mind, of the power of the market to deliver societal progress. As the article continues:

"This 19-fold difference—call it the dairy divide—has enormous consequences. Closing even some of it would ease poverty, help children grow up better nourished, reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and perhaps even make civil wars less likely."

Take care
David
