Petition Require Plant-Based Food Options to be the Default in Public Institutions.

We urge the UK Government to mandate that plant-based food options be made the default in all public institutions, including schools, hospitals, and prisons. This policy would require plant-based meals to be the primary offering, with other dietary preferences available upon request.

More details

We think this change would promote Public Health, as some research shows plant-based diets may reduce the risk of chronic illnesses such as heart disease and diabetes. This could help lower the healthcare burden. In addition, this could support sustainability, as plant-based meals can have a lower environmental impact, which could help the UK meet its climate goals and protect natural resources.

By making plant-based options the default, we believe the Government can lead in creating a healthier, more sustainable, and inclusive food system, setting a global example.
