Irish dairy ‘feeding the world’ we are told. Sustainable, grass fed, green. Government funded. Meanwhile the industry is profiting from selling inferior milk product in West Africa. Insightful analysis from @desmog.com #SpeirGorm

A disturbing DeSmog article on major Irish dairy processors' export of Fat Filled Milk Powder (FFMP) to West Africa, helped by 🇮🇪 tax-payer monies.
