F.A.Q.

What if I don’t want to give up meat?

We’re not asking you to! Look at the options and choose one that suits you. It’s not just about eating less meat - it’s also about choosing good local meat, and avoiding too much processed meat.

I’m vegetarian/vegan. Can I sign up?

You probably have some meat eaters amongst your friends, family and colleagues. The best way you can help is by sharing our website with them and asking them to become part-time carnivores.

If you do want to sign up yourself, look for option 6!

Can I switch to a different option or community?

Yes. You can change to a different option or community using the name and e-mail address you signed up with.

If you mistyped your name or want to be removed from the website for any reason, e-mail hello@parttimecarnivore.org and we will sort it out for you.

How are the stats calculated?

Our land and CO2 stats are intended to illustrate the real, immediate and significant benefits of eating less meat. They compare your chosen option to average UK consumption, so they are not personal to what you eat.

They are only rough estimates and we hope to be able to get more accurate numbers in future. If you would like to know how we calculated them, feel free to take a look.

Does fish count as meat?

YES! If you’re a part-time carnivore it does! Read this to find out why. If you want to eat fish for health reasons, two portions of oily fish each week is plenty, and do try to buy species that are sustainably fished.

Who is behind Part-Time Carnivore?

Part-Time Carnivore was created by Pete Davis, because he wanted to. He now works with a small team of volunteers. Meet the team and read a brief history and see our mission.

How can I get involved?

Getting involved in Part-Time Carnivore is as easy as 1 2 3.

How do I get in contact?

E-mail hello@parttimecarnivore.org. We will get back to you, but please be patient if we don't respond right away.
