– The guidelines on the city council platform do not imply a ban on serving meat or fish, but vegetarian meals should be a standard choice at city events.

This means switching to current practice, where the standard choice is usually a meal consisting of meat or fish, but guests can request a vegetarian meal instead.

We will increase the proportion of organic food, reduce food waste, promote the use of climate-friendly menus with seasonal products, increase the proportion of plant-based foods such as fruit, vegetables, whole grains and legumes and reduce consumption of dairy products, fish, poultry and meat, he said at the time. that.
