Why this campaign?

The case for going
plant-based at Graz

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 Graz serves is a choice between perpetuating this crisis or being part of the solution.

What can we do?

137t CO²e emitted in 2024 just by the food eaten at the mensa

Every plate is a decision TU Graz makes and can change. TU Graz has already committed to become climate neutral by 2030. Going 100% plant-based is one of the most visible, controllable ways to actually deliver on that promise.

Is that even possible?

Absolutely! University of Graz went fully plant-based already - with your help TU Graz can be next!

The petition text
To our university
Die TU Graz hat Nachhaltigkeit fest institutionalisiert: Mit ihrer Stabseinheit für Infrastruktur und Nachhaltigkeit und dem Nachhaltigkeitsbeirat 2.0 werden Strategie, Forschung, Lehre und Betrieb systematisch auf Nachhaltigkeit ausgerichtet. Ziel ist u.a. mit dem Programm Klimaneutrale TU Graz 2030 bis 2030 klimaneutral zu werden. Wörtlich heißt es auf der Homepage: „Nachhaltigkeit wird an der TU Graz gesamtheitlich gedacht und gelebt.“ Wir fordern, dass die Technische Universität Graz ihrem Nachhaltigkeitsversprechen als auch ihrer Vorbildfunktion gerecht wird, sich gemäß den aktuellen wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen klar zu den Zusammenhängen zwischen Ernährung und Klima positioniert und ihre Verpflegungsangebote dementsprechend auf eine 100% pflanzliche Ernährung umstellt.

We’re an international movement, so don’t forget the country code!
