Plant-Based Universities campaigners tabled the motion in an effort to fight climate change and use more local produce.
University of Edinburgh students have rejected calls for all student association venues to go vegan by 2027.
PBU Edinburgh campaigner Emily Kemp called the vote outcome "a setback in our strive for climate justice, but not one we will allow to stop us." "If Edinburgh's students are so far unconvinced that animal farming and fishing is wrecking our planet and would rather take the words of those with a vested interest in concealing the truth, then we will continue to work to change that."
A similar vote to ban meat from campus menus was held among Edinburgh University students in 2020. Of the approximate 6,000 students that voted, 58% were against the motion.The PBU campaign is a nationwide student effort to roll out 100% plant-based catering across higher education institutions.
