The Challenge: Uplift the plant-based movement and inspire hundreds of companies and thousands of people to eat more plant-based
With the earth’s population rising from 7 to 9 billion people by 2050, the consumption of meat is expected to double. Already, the meat industry represents 18% of global CO2 emissions according to FAO which is more than the entire transportation industry combined. The message is clear as day. The way we eat needs to be reinvented.
Together with pioneers in the plant-based movement, able® is at the forefront in inspiring and exciting companies and their employees to eat more plant-based - for their health, for the well-being of animals and for the environment. The number of plant-based meals served at able® has gone from 8% to 15% in just one year. However, the animals and the environment are not waiting for us to act. We want to double that number by 2021.
As Change Maker for this challenge, you will lead our effort in developing, launching and optimizing initiatives letting people discover and experience the wonders of culinary experiences the plant universe has to offer. With your creative mindset, you will ideate, plan and execute memorable physical happenings around the lunch experience for our customer to celebrate the plant kingdom and inspire to try a plant-based lunch.
