An interesting article on my BBC feed discusses a plan to make the dairy biz in Britain greener. Less water, less fossil fuel usage, less energy usage, doing a better job with waste of all kinds - with clear numerical targets.

What really caught my attention though was this: the plan came from the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
Why don't we have a department like that in our government, rather than having agriculture in one department, environment in another, and things affecting both all over the place?
