From Nov 2021 till Feb 2022, Earth Society collaborated with 4 groups of students from Temasek Polytechnic to create Instagram Pages to spread Meatless days.

The Instagram Pages has posts on Veg recipes, Reasons for going Veg, Happy cow App, Meatless Monday video clips etc. Many students tried Meatless Monday for the first time in their life and wrote about their experience in their Instagram Page. Some students find it easy to adopt Meatless Mondays while others find it a challenge. :>

The following are the Instagram Pages created by the students:

1. TP ClimateCrew Instagram:

https://www.instagram.com/climatecrew.sg/

This instagram page has all 5 members sharing (via video) their experience of going Meatless for 1 day.

This team took an extra effort to create an Interactive Powerpoint slide :

The Powerpoint slides have videos to show how to cook veggie meals at home, videos that recommend good Veg restaurants and Fun facts on Climate change. It also has additional info such as What is Singapore’s effort to reduce Climate change and What local organizations are doing for Meatless Monday.

Lionel Lim, HeartyMeaty team leader, wrote the following comments after the project:

“To sum up everything, it is a fun and enjoyable journey to get in-depth of learning about ‘Meatless Monday’ and how it is environmentally friendly to climate action and gaining pieces of knowledge from Earth Society Global Warming talk (NTU event) as well.”

…

After doing the projects, the students have more understanding of how a Meatless diet can benefit the Environment and are more willing to make some lifestyle changes to help the Environment.
