A team of animal scientists from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign is set to deliver a potential game changer for subsistence farmers in Tanzania: cows that produce up to 20 times the milk of indigenous breeds.

    I'm okay with that if the cows are okay.

    I mean I'm okay with breeding and genetically changing, but I would advocate for an institute that checks the animals on health. Just so we don't get animals like Chihuahuas, that often suffer a lot due to their poor health. I could imagine it's not easy for a cow to produce 10 liters of milk a day.

    Something tells me trying to solve climate change with eugenics could have some very bad consequences
