King’s College London started Meat Free Monday in 2019 and, following a successful partnership with Beyond Meat, increased plant-based food sales to the same levels as other days of the week.
If your college or uni doesn’t already have one, start an eco society, or see whether the vegetarian/vegan group would get behind Meat Free Monday.

‘Cowspiracy’, ‘The Game Changers’, ‘What The Health’ and our very own ‘One Day a Week’ … There are so many documentaries which offer food for thought. Why not put on a screening for fellow students and hold a debate afterwards?
Deals, deals, deals
