    Livestock and their byproducts are accountable for 51% of all greenhouse gas emissions, worldwide. 2,500 gallons of water are needed to produce 1 pound of beef. Animal agriculture is responsible for up to 91% of the Amazon rainforest destruction. It is so easy to help the planet – by eating a plant-based diet you will be living a much more sustainable life. So for that reason I would like all food and drink available on campus to be suitable for vegans.

6:08pm on 22 Sep 20 The university of Derby promote inclusivity, and I feel that by making all food vegan might go against this notion, as you'd essentially be forcing people to eat vegan options rather than allowing them to be them selves. Maybe campaign for more vegan options/choices?

noon on 3 Dec 20 Im in agreement with the comments, Vegan is a good thing and maybe campaigning for more veggie/vegan options is the way to go.
