In light of a recent discussion on Bovine Growth Hormone (rBGH), I
would like to put forward a few resources for those of you interested
in learning more. This is an important issue not only for you American
citizens, but also for countries who are being pressured to approve
the use of BGH in dairy products.
Here are a couple of the best resources I know of for rBGH:

Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream
http://euphoria.benjerry.com/bgh/index.html
I think this is the biggest corporate thorn in BGH's side... Ben &
Jerry's does not use BGH dairy products in any of its ice creams and
is an active opponent to it.
"We Oppose Recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone. The family farmers who
supply our milk and cream pledge not to treat their cows with rBGH.
The FDA has said no significant difference has been shown and no test
can distinguish between milk from rBGH treated and untreated cows."

Milk Does No Body Good
http://www.enviroweb.org/enviroissues/biotech/bgh/
A great COMPACT BGH page including lots of information and active
campaigns.

Also call 1-888-NOT-MILK
