Food-Planet-Health

School of Management organized a session ‘Food-Planet-Health’ in collaboration with Vegan Outreach, an NPO in the United States that seeks a future when sentient animals are no longer exploited as commodities. Mr. Abhishek Dubey, Outreach Coordinator with the NPO, with extensive experience in this domain, was the session speaker.The session focussed on how our food choices impact our health, the environment, the animals, and the planet at large. The session began with rekindling the minds of the students about the violence and atrocities done on animals to feed the appetite of humans. It then gave startling facts and figures associated with animal agriculture and urged young minds to think of ways to reduce violence against animals through our food choices. Going vegan was suggested as one such way. The session witnessed lively speaker-student interaction and an insightful question-answer session. The students then took a pledge to make conscious food choices that minimize the brutal impact on animals. The session was attended by MBA, BBA, and B.Com (Hons.) students.
