Hallowe'en Lunch at Croydon Clocktower Cafe: Dairy is Scary
, –
About this event
Clocktower Cafe in Croydon (in the Town Hall) has agreed to provide a plant-based lunch that aligns more closely with the EAT-Lancet Planetary Health diet, if at least 20 of us can come to lunch on the 31st October at 1pm. Can you come and have lunch with us for the "Dairy is Scary" Clocktower Cafe Hallowe'en Lunch?
Animal farming plays a huge role in environmental destruction and the climate crisis, and farming cows for meat and dairy drives water pollution. Factory farming promotes catastrophic soil degradation and erosion, and biodiversity loss nationwide. The Climate Change Committee (CCC) recommends a 20% reduction in dairy consumption by 2035.
Lactose intolerance in adulthood is the norm for the global majority, and in schools, a report from Parent Pay just a few days ago highlights dairy as the cause of the most allergic reactions in UK schools and BBC Ideas also just released a "Milk is Weird" short video on YouTube!
Let's get together for some plant-based everyone food. We think the average lunch costs around £10-12. Ghost stories optional!
