GUEST - the Glasgow University Environmental Sustainability Team - are here to keep you up to date and in the know on everything sustainable at the University of Glasgow and beyond.
Today we're talking to Emma Sancho, a 4th year psychology student who's involved in the Plant-Based Universities Campaign, which recently kicked off at Glasgow Uni.
Join us to learn more about the benefits of having a plant-based diet and to understand the motivations behind the campaign. If you'd like to get involved, you can visit their website here (https://www.plantbaseduniversities.org/) and follow them on Instagram at @plantbasedunis (https://www.instagram.com/plantbasedunis/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igshid=MmVlMjlkMTBhMg==) and @plantbasedunisglasgow (https://www.instagram.com/plantbasedunisglasgow/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igshid=MmVlMjlkMTBhMg==) for the Glasgow branch.
