Be honest: do you know the difference between Pasturized and Homogenized?
I grew up on a small dairy farm. I buy my milk from a very small local farm, and I know the difference. I buy milk that is Pasturized but not homogenized. But I’m learning many folks don’t know the difference. Do You?

#H5N1 strikes more poultry in 4 states; #CDC updates details on recent human cases
Lisa Schnirring, February 24, 2025
"In new H5N1 avian flu confirmations today, the US Department of Agriculture (#USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (#APHIS) reported that the virus hit more flocks in four states, including another massive layer farm in Ohio, the nation’s second biggest poultry producer.
"Over the past several weeks, Ohio has been one of main outbreak epicenters, with one of the latest events involving a commercial farm in #DarkeCounty that has more than 3 million birds, according to APHIS. The virus also struck another layer farm in Ohio’s #MercerCounty, a facility that has nearly 85,000 birds.
"Elsewhere, the virus struck two more commercial farms in #Indiana, another hard-hit state. The latest outbreaks occurred at a turkey farm in Washington County and a commercial duck-breeding facility in Elkhart County. The virus was also confirmed in #backyard birds in two states, a location in #Florida’s #BrowardCounty and a location in #NewYork’s Delaware County.
"Over the last 30 days alone, ongoing H5N1 outbreaks have led to the loss of nearly 19 million birds.
"In #dairy herd developments, over the last few days, APHIS confirmed one more detection, which involves another herd from #Nevada. The state now has eight affected herds. Since the virus first emerged in dairy cattle about a year ago, detections have been reported in 973 herds across 17 states."

We would halve #methane emissions from North America if we cut cattle by half 
A most efficient path would be to target #USA because the headcount is biggest and because each bovine emits most if bred the American way. Same as in Brazil: https://mas.to/@maugendre/113992940508282754

Greenhouse gas from livestock digestion in Equatorial Climates
Along the Equator, it mainly is sheep and bovines that account for methane emissions.
The biggest producers are Ethiopia and Sudan (South Sudan included).
Reference: #GreenHouseForcing http://data.yt/
#Cattle husbandry emits #greenhouse gas.
For example:
* South America and the Indian subcontinent breed most bovines who emit most methane.
* China and the Middle East produce too much livestock methane in regard to their bovine headcounts.
Emissions of #methane from livestock digestion per world region:
The #CDC report is the latest evidence that the outbreak in #dairy herds is spreading undetected in #cows, & the spillover into people at highest risk of exposure is going unnoticed.
…A slimmed-down #MMWR resumed publication last week but included NONE of the #BirdFlu reports. #PublicHealth experts have criticized the unprecedented break in publication & the holdup of bird flu information.
We attended a Raid Response Training this past week - to act as observers of immigration raids and document actions of ICE that might help the case for migrants. Though the organizers hoped for 150 volunteers to register, 1,800 signed up. One of those who attended had driven 3 hours from rural SW MN: A dairy farmer, he wanted to know how to protect his workers....
Let's consider activities that force the Greenhouse Effect, thus @climate change.
#Livestock digestion emits too much #methane:
• People farm too many bovines in India, Pakistan, Brazil, United States, China;
• People farm too many goats in India, Pakistan, China, Nigeria;
• People farm too many pigs in China and the United States.
"There are currently 5.9 million dairy cattle in Aotearoa, who consume 75% of the total grain and feed in the country; we humans eat only 9%. The herd needs around 20% supplementary feeding [feed provided in addition to grass] and some 50-60% of supplementary feed on most dairy farms is imported."
