Abstract
Increasing the amount of plant-based options on college campuses could lead to great decreases in carbon emissions, and an improvement in student health, nationwide. Expanding the plant-based options on the SUNY Geneseo campus could encourage students to convert from a meat-based diet to a plant-based diet, which could contribute to a drastic decrease in greenhouse gas emissions from college campuses in the United States. SUNY Geneseo should consider expanding the plant-based options offered in its dining halls to better accommodate students who embrace or are interested in consuming a plant-based diet, which in turn would help decrease greenhouse gas emissions and increase student health on campus.
