That's not worldnews. US farms wouldn't be legal in EU. Most EU farms wouldn't be legal here (Swiss). California is not the world.
The US is the 2nd largest milk producer on the planet...and that's only IF you count the EU as a single entity. Otherwise, it's 1st. Also, the largest economy on the planet. Things that happen in America matter elsewhere.
While that may be true, the title and article act as if the US is the world, as if "the most humane dairy farms" in the US are the most humane dairy farms in the world, which is clearly not even remotely close to the truth.
It might be the 2nd largest milk producing country, but they couldn't sell the milk in the EU due to the unethical and unhygienic way it's produced. That's OP's point
I'm pissed off that when I move out of the USA because it's turned into a fucking nightmare, I'll still be affected by things happening in the USA. The outsized effect that it has makes me mad.
