# TU Wien Canonical URL: [TU Wien](https://plantbaseduniversities.org/tu-wien) Campaign last updated: 2026-10-29T17:50:49.220Z City: Wien ## Setting new standards to turn TU Wien fully plant-based\! Every change starts small and every person can be part of it\! Signatures displayed: 223. Current signature goal: 1,000. Counts can change. ## What is the problem? ### 57% of food emissions come from animal products Food systems are responsible for around a third of all global greenhouse gas emissions, and animal products are the dominant driver. Meat and dairy alone generate more emissions than all the world's planes, ships, and cars combined. Every meal TU Wien serves is a choice between perpetuating this crisis or being part of the solution. TU Wien is already trying to implement sustainability in other fields like renewable energy and transportation, but catering is lacking severly behind\! ## What can we do? ### Reminding them of their promises TU Wien has already committed to the fuTUre fit plan, which containes strategies to make it a more sustainable place. Going 100% plant-based is one of the most visible, controllable ways to actually deliver on that promise. Many departments at TU Wien are already focusing on sustainability, yet one for the catering is still missing. Creating a strong student-led movement is our most effective method to achieve change. ## Is that even possible? University of Graz went fully plant-based. Vienna is following their footsteps, with BOKU and CEU sucessfully voting for a 100% plant-based cantine — and TU Wien will be next\! ## Petition To all students and staff of TU Wien\! TU Wien is committed to climate neutrality, but this step is still missing when it comes to food on campus. A fully plant-based offer is climate-friendly and something everyone can eat, regardless of religion, intolerances or diet. I support Plant-Based Universities TU Wien and call for all food and drinks at TU Wien to be transitioned step by step to 100% plant-based. This should be affordable and varied, and planned together with students, staff and the catering operators. ## Get involved and follow updates [Visit the campaign page](https://plantbaseduniversities.org/tu-wien) to join the team or sign the petition, and read the latest campaign timeline.
