The case for going
plant-based at Edinburgh
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 the University of Edinburgh serves is a choice between perpetuating this crisis or being part of the solution.
What can we do?
Thousands of meals/day served at UoE
Every plate is a decision the University of Edinburgh makes and can change. UoE has already committed to reaching net zero by 2040. Going 100% plant-based is one of the most visible, controllable ways to actually deliver on that promise.
Is that even possible?
University of Graz went fully plant-based. Rotterdam hit 75% — and UoE can be next!
