Vegan
animal agriculture is reponsible for 51% of greenhouse gas emissions, so switching to a plant-based biet is a great way to become more eco-friendly!
That being said, here is a short list of some vegan restaurants in Geneva:

Le Jardin de Denise is an online cosmetics shop with natural products. The cosmetics are swiss-made and the packages are recyclable (glass, aluminum, textiles) or non-existent (shampoo bars). The prices vary, from 5 to 20CHF. The brand doesn’t have a shop, but you can either buy the products online or go to select locations in different cantons, including Geneva.
