STONEHENGE IS MORE SCOTTISH THAN WE THOUGHT
Mastodon Post

Stonehenge megalith came from Scotland, not Wales, ‘jaw-dropping’ study finds

Let's see if we can find a Robert Burns poem about Stonehenge.

Lovely date night last night at Elder Hall, at the University of Adelaide, with the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra performing works composed by women (three of whom were in the audience).

Especially beautiful work with a Cor Anglais soloist. I could not have picked out a Cor Anglais from a woodwind lineup prior to last night, but now I can.

In a positive outlook for 2024, #universities across #Canada are introducing more #PlantBased or #vegan food options. Many of the universities have stated this is due to ongoing demand from students for more variety - and a larger push for more sustainable practices.

A number of universities are taking the lead, notably:

-#WesternUniversity. The university set a goal of having a 40 per cent plant-based menu at all dining halls by the new year, but it hit the target — and at some points even surpassed it — this year. A fully vegan outlet will open in 2024, and the school wants to reach a 50 per cent target in 2025.
-#TheUniversityOfBritishColumbia. 55 per cent of the food in dining halls is plant-based, and the Vancouver school hopes to reach a goal of 80 per cent by 2025.
-#ConcordiaUniversity in Montreal plans to reduce its purchase of meat, dairy and eggs by 30 per cent.
-#DalhousieUniversity in Halifax aims to offer a menu with at least 50 per cent plant-based food options by 2030.
-#UniversityOfToronto. Plant-based options represented less than half of the universities food services offerings two years ago, but now account for 61 per cent.

Vegan Australia is advocating for Australian universities* to gain inspiration from these progressive examples, and embrace a fully vegan food system for the benefit of the planet, humanity, and for the animals.
