I wonder why universities classrooms are designed more like movie threaders?

What do you mean for he’s not doing it for the common good because it doesn’t show anywhere where he is “telling anyone to use his business only.”
The vegans have always “have an agenda but never the multi-billion animal agriculture” that is made of factory farms where billions of animals are exploited and slaughtered for nothing in horrid conditions where they’re crammed together in filthy dark rooms in massive structures increasing the likelihood of pandemics and antibiotic resistance many times over. Now that is truly selfish.
Even the vegans who do not own a business are often excused of being “self-serving” when advocating for more people to be ethical sustainable and healthier.
It’s like marginalized groups being called “selfish” for when they’re advocating for equal treatment in society.

Going vegan is the most impactful way to reduce your effect on the climate.
- Comment on Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince 3 days ago:
Any claim to discredit someone pushing for healthier and more sustainable meals for the children.
The meat and diary industries must be protected at all costs. They’re never self serving it must be the vegans /s

Not you’re resorting to misinformation as the whole foods plant-based is healthier.
- Comment on Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince 3 days ago:
You’re ignoring the fact that veganism is much better for the environment than the standard diet.

You don’t need meat in order to get your protein.
- Comment on Compulsory Meat In Schools Should Be Scrapped, Says Dale Vince 3 days ago:
Yeah so does animal agriculture wanting to have meat and dairy served 3 or more days a week in the schools. Are we really going to ignore the ethics, sustainability and health concerns of animal agriculture just because he has a vested interest in the vegan food market.
Why not critique animal agriculture’s vested interest in maintaining its £14 billion market value or the ability to keep polluting the rivers.

Vince, who is vegan himself, has repeatedly discussed the importance of moving away from animal products for the good of the planet and human health. He recently slammed animal agriculture in a speech at the Restore Nature Now march in London, saying that farming animals was the “cow in the room” of the climate and nature crises.
At the Labour Party Conference, he said that he would be speaking to the government about introducing “climate and sustainability” into the school curriculum.
Vince also stressed that plant-based meals are better for children than animal-based ones. Vegan diets are known to reduce the risk of a number of chronic diseases, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and some cancers. Processed red meat, for example, is linked to increased risk of colon cancer, while dairy may cause breast and prostate cancers. “We shouldn’t be forcing these unhealthy products onto our kids,” Vince said.

Nah you can have healthier options for a balanced diet without raising your risk for chronic disease such as legumes, whole grains, whole grain bread , nuts and seeds, soy products, vegetables, plant-based protein powders and meat substitutes.

It’s great to see entrepreneurs advocating for healthier and more environmentally friendly meal options. The benefits of plant-based diets for both health and the environment are well-documented in scientific literature. Schools often play a pivotal role in shaping dietary habits, and integrating vegan meals can teach children about nutrition and sustainability from a young age.
As for children not having a say in their school meals, it’s important to recognize that educational institutions have a responsibility to offer nutritious options that adhere to dietary guidelines. Just as schools prioritize educational curricula to foster academic growth, the provision of healthy food options is geared toward physical well-being.
Here are some children who asked for plant-based options in schools.
