Agriculture Minister Petre Daea has come to the defense of the cow, denying that it is the “enemy of the planet” and that cars, not animals, are responsible for pollution.

“The cow is a species that goes through great difficulties, first of all interpretations. Don’t you see that now the cow has become the enemy of the planet? All accusations on the horns of a cow. Now the cow is responsible when we have so much pollution. Romania has 2 million cows and 9 million cars, and some have two pipes. We must understand this and pay attention to the nuances, but also pay attention to the principles, act in accordance with them. That’s why we said and thought it was necessary to make a taurine support supplement and introduce taurine for wellness. You will see what this means in the sum. This animal needs to be protected and supported. There is no ecosystem without animals!” Daea said in Braila at the regional meeting on the National Strategic Plan for 2023-2027, debraila.ro writes.
