"My friends argue that a good vegetarian should aspire to be a
vegan as products such as honey, silk and dairy ultimately cause suffering
to animals. Feeding 6 billion people milk cannot be possible without
intensive dairy farming. Why don't we start avoiding these products? Do
adults really need milk?"
My reply:
Dear R, thanks for your thoughtful letter. A few months back I engaged in extensive correspondence on this very subject. Here are the links. Be sure to read any of the comments to the blogs. Read them in the following order:

Dairy Life Three
Dairy Life Four
Hope it sheds some light, Best wishes, Kurma
