    The chart says those values are what it takes to produce one liter of each milk.

      So we are talking about producing roughly 580 calories of almond milk vs producing 2400 calories of cow milk.

      So in terms of calories/pollution rate, we are talking about a scale of 1:2 in favor of cow milk efficiency.

      Meaning in terms of keeping people fed as a rate of efficiency in pollution, cow milk is twice as efficient.

      Does that math add up? feel free to check me.

      Edit: doubled the calories in an unsweetened silk almond milk for almond milk calorie count

      Used a local brand of whole milk that based on a short Google search seems pretty standard.
