Everyone’s journey is different and every small change for the better is better than no change at all.
Sign up to going plant-based for three days a week over the course of 10 weeks.
You'll get access to an easy-to-use online calculator at the beginning and end of the challenge to track your progress and see the positive impact your plant protein journey has had on the environment, and for animals. It will be clear that even a small change in personal behaviour can help to make a real difference.

Why swap meat for plant based protein in your meals?
A new study by UTS for World Animal Protection found that swapping your regular beef burger with a plant based beef burger will easily help you achieve a whopping 90% reduction in the global warming potential of your meal and massively reduce the usage of land and water by 94% each.
Three-quarters of all Australians over the age of 14 frequently eat at fast food restaurants, mostly consuming meat and other animal products that come from low-welfare and high-emissions farming systems.
Australia has the highest global consumption levels of meat, which is one of the largest sources of methane, a gas more potent than carbon dioxide. This explains why our country emits elevated levels of greenhouse gases (GHG) from the food sector. It is time we realise the significant impact of our food choices on the environment, our health, and animals.
You can actively contribute to achieving the transition to a low emission, sustainable and cruelty-free food system by ordering more sustainable menu options and cooking more plant based meals at home using our delicious recipes. To make it easy for you to reduce your carbon footprint and make an enormous difference to our planet, we have created the Plant Protein Challenge. Sign up now!

Protein is important for the health of our bodies. However, many Australians are eating more than double the amount of red meat recommended in the Australian dietary guidelines. Eating more plant-based meals in your diet will still deliver your protein needs and can help reduce your risk of heart disease, the leading cause of death in Australia, as well as lowering your chances of developing other diseases like Type-2 diabetes.

Climate change is one of the biggest threats to the planet we call home and animal farming is one of the largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions in the world. Farming animals is also incredibly water intensive – resulting in large volumes of water being used every day. In a drought-prone country like Australia, this is unsustainable. Eating more plant-based foods has been shown to result in a reduced environmental impact, including lower greenhouse gas emissions and reduced water usage.

Animals
Around the world, 50 billion animals are forced to live and suffer in factory farms every year. They’re treated like cogs in a machine and endure short, miserable lives in small cages, crates or pens where they can’t behave naturally. Animals are sentient beings who feel pain and emotions like joy, or fear. Choosing to eat more plant-based meals will help reduce the demand that fuels this cruel system.
