Aha. Sorry for misunderstanding your question :)
Danish dairy industry’s own numbers are that it takes 10 liters of milk to produce 1 kg of cheese, so 10:1.
I’m pretty sure that number goes up the firmer the cheese, ie Parmesan.
It doesn’t say anything about yoghurt.I too started out from a climate perspective, then came health and then animal rights. I support you in your efforts.
Though, once you start to look into the health thing your reduce your consumption so fast it’s easy to cut it out completely. ;)https://nutritionfacts.org/topics/dairy/
My girlfriend “could never give up on cheese” so we agreed not to buy it, and she could have it when she was eating out. A few weeks in she didn’t crave it anymore and now she rarely eats it (only when served).
My best advice (I know you are not asking for it) is to find substitutes that you can tolerate. Try a soy yoghurt, see if it works for you. Try a plant milk and see what works on your cereal or in the coffee. Change habits and routines. Have porridge instead of yoghurt? Drink black coffee instead of flat white?

Ah, no I mean dairy based products.
I've been cutting down from carnivore to vegetarian, low carbon footprint diet. I don't drink milk any more but still have yoghurt / cheese. But how much milk am I still indirectly consuming?
Asking here because presumably others have done a similar thing and vegans are generally brighter :)
Assumed @Oliver Schick would have some stats up his sleeve
