The case for going
plant-based at Wien
What is the problem?
57% of food emissions come from animal products
Food systems are responsible for around a third of all global greenhouse gas emissions, and animal products are the dominant driver. Meat and dairy alone generate more emissions than all the world's planes, ships, and cars combined. Every meal TU Wien serves is a choice between perpetuating this crisis or being part of the solution. TU Wien is already trying to implement sustainability in other fields like renewable energy and transportation, but catering is lacking severly behind!
What can we do?
Reminding them of their promises
TU Wien has already committed to the fuTUre fit plan, which containes strategies to make it a more sustainable place. Going 100% plant-based is one of the most visible, controllable ways to actually deliver on that promise. Many departments at TU Wien are already focusing on sustainability, yet one for the catering is still missing. Creating a strong student-led movement is our most effective method to achieve change.
Is that even possible?
University of Graz went fully plant-based. Vienna is following their footsteps, with BOKU and CEU sucessfully voting for a 100% plant-based cantine — and TU Wien will be next!

In this meeting, we introduced our campaign to the people from the sustainability department of the student union. The people there were supportive of our goals and want to further support us (e.g. for organsing events together, etc.).
