By replacing beef with more sustainable meats and vegetables we can:
Cut our campus' climate impact, because producing the beef we eat creates 5 times more greenhouse gases than other meats and vegetables.
Save our campus money, as beef is much more expensive than pork, chicken or other vegetable alternatives. Let's put the savings towards more sustainability initiatives or tuition assistance!
Improve the health of our student body, as numerous studies show that too much beef consumption is linked to a number of diseases.
