@students, we need your help !!
I’m Maddie, a university student from the UK, and one of the youth committee from #0beef.
Did you know that your canteen could cut its emissions by 40% per year with just a few simple menu changes in their menu? - that’s the carbon equivalent of 136 024 economy class return air journeys between London and New York every year.
we have worked with many institutions like the University of Cambridge. We'd like to help to guide your canteen and service staff in the transition.- but we need your help to keep the movement going .
We’d love to be able to help to make it easy for you to make a major positive impact on your university's carbon footprint. Check out our website to find out more.(0beef.com).
If you’d like to lend a hand to grow this campaign, drop me a message either on here, or on Instagram (@0beef) so we can set up a call :)

Petition wording:
Hold an inquiry into lobbying practices in the UK
We want the Government to hold an inquiry into lobbying practices in the UK, including those that involve the giving of a financial or other advantage in order to try to influence the Government or Parliament, and the impact this has on policy.
I care about the integrity of UK democracy and believe lobbying is inconsistent with the principle of one person, one vote, by enabling a 'pay to win' system.
Some lobbying activities appear to involve the exchange of a financial or other advantage for influence, which gives wealthy individuals the opportunity to undermine democracy and the will of the people.
The wording had to be altered slightly to "ensure your petition meets our standards" according to the petitions committee.
They also advised altering it to call an inquiry as a debate happens automatically at 100,000 signatures, which I accepted. There'll still be a debate if we get to 100,000 signatures and if they write to me for more information (they said they might, we'll see), I'll be recommending an independent inquiry with multiple agencies collaborating including the The Electoral Commission and the National Crime Agency.
Original wording:
Call for a debate in Parliament about Lobbying practices in the UK
Parliament should debate issues such as APPGs, the influence of lobbying on policy, and how lobbying can often involve the giving of a financial or other advantage with the intention of causing the improper performance of a relevant function of government or parliament.
I care about the integrity of UK democracy and believe lobbying violates the principle of one person, one vote, by creating a pay to win system. The types of lobbying activities involving the exchange of money for influence allow wealthy individuals to undermine democracy and the will of the people.

The EcoAction Committee of the Green Party of the U.S. will hold a webinar forum on Monday, April 10 about the importance of this year’s Earth Day to May Day activities. The event, which begins at 8:00 PM ET is part of the national day to build the Green Party.
RSVP is required. Register here for the April 10 Forum.
The webinar will outline how green activists can build support for system change not climate change by organizing local educational events, protests, vigils, social media, LTE, call-ins, etc. from Earth Day (April 22) to May Day. An important part is building solidarity among the various movements demanding systemic change, such as Black Lives Matter, women’s rights, GLBQT, rights of nature, public power, peace, and worker and immigrant rights.
Speakers on April 10 will address the need for the climate movement to be more anti-capitalist, as well as the need for an Ecosocialist Green New Deal; biodiversity / RON; ending single-use plastics and halting fossil fuels; the role of the military on climate; and, how to promote Green living.
Speakers include Mark Dunlea, co-chair of EcoAction and author of Putting Out the Planetary Fire (link for free internet/pdf copy), speaking on climate change and the need to end capitalism; Dawn Marie Cronen, co-chair of EcoAction, speaking on Green Living; and Prof. David Schwartzman, EcoAction member from DC and climate scientist, speaking on climate change and the military.
