Celebrating World Vegetarian Day

October 1st is World Vegetarian Day. To celebrate the day we have put together a collection of Vegetarian and Plant Based recipes gathered from all of you lovely people!

The meat and dairy industry accounts for around 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. A combination of direct emissions from cows and sheep (amongst other meats), land use and deforestation plus a small amount from packaging and transport account for this large amount of emissions. The below table shows the greenhouse gas emissions across the food supply chain. Emissions are measured in carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2eq). This means non-CO2 gases are weighted by the amount of warming they cause over a 100-year timescale.

By reducing our meat and dairy consumption even by 1 day can see a meaningful difference. So, we hope that by sharing all of these fantastic plant-based meals you will be encouraged to try them out and explore the wonderful world of plant-based meals, helping to create a better future for our planet.

Happy eating!
