Get Gobby 2014

After the success of Get Gobby last year, it’s back – and this year we are mixing it up. 

What’s it all about?

Get Gobby 2014  Friends of the EarthWhat we eat day-to-day can be bad for us. It can harm our planet by contributing to catastrophic climate change, mass deforestation, and overfishing. It can also hurt our health; increasing our risk of strokes, cancer and heart disease.

We need to change our diets. Fast.

 

A healthy planet diet means:

  • We eat less and better meat
  • We waste less
  • We eat more plants

So how do we do it? Last year we challenged university students with this question. We had a number of fantastic entries, one of which was the overall winner: Meat Free May by Jannat Hossain.

This year the challenge is back, and this time it’s not just for the students. We are opening the challenge up to community groups. We want you to let us know how you would get people to eat more sustainably in your area.

What do I have to do?
