Did you know that food production is responsible for as much as 25% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions? Shifting towards more plant-rich foods can make a substantial difference. That’s why we've teamed up with the World Resources Institute (WRI) to bring the Coolfood Pledge to healthcare facilities across Europe. Together, we are committed to cutting GHG emissions linked to food served in healthcare facilities and reducing its impact on the climate. Through the Coolfood Pledge, participants have the opportunity to: 🌱 Adopt science-based reduction targets for food-related emissions. 🌱 Track, calculate, and reduce their emissions. 🌱 Access best practices and support. 🌱 Receive personalised feedback. Ten healthcare facilities across Europe – representing 9 million meals annually – have already signed the Coolfood Pledge so far, reducing food-related GHG emissions by 7% per plate since 2015.

🌍 This #WorldFoodDay, we’re excited to highlight our member's progress in reducing their food-related emissions! 📉 The Coolfood Pledge is a commitment to reduce food-related carbon emissions by 25% by 2030. 🏫 One Pledge member, ISS Facility Services UK, is preparing to take a bold step toward sustainability this month that will positively impact meals in secondary schools across the U.K. We can't wait to share more about their efforts to build more resilient food future—stay tuned! Still hungry? Check out our just-released progress report to learn more about the efforts of other Coolfood members: https://lnkd.in/eXbPwE7g

Our annual progress report is live! Here's the highlights: 🎯 The Coolfood Pledge is a commitment by our members to reduce their food-related emissions by 25% by 2030 - a level of ambition in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. 🏙️ Cities and healthcare facilities are leading the way — some have even hit their 2030 reduction targets ahead of schedule! (Congratulations to Copenhagen, Ghent, Milan, and New York 🌟) 📉 How did they do it? Emissions reductions are largely the result of serving more plant-based foods and less red meat. Across all sectors, the share of plant-based food on the plate is up by an average of 4%, and within cities, it's up by 21%! This is great progress, but there's more to be done. Are you ready to make a difference at your organization? Check out our progress report and see how we can help you shape the future of food.

Food has enormous potential to heal the planet. However, that potential sits on the other side of real action from businesses, governments, and each of one us. 🌎 This #ClimateWeekNYC, Coolfood joined other change makers at the first ever Tilt Collective Food Day! We heard from sustainability leaders at Aramark, US Tennis Association, and Hackensack Meridian Health who are working to cut their food related emissions by 25% by 2030. 🥕 The food system is responsible for 1/3 of global greenhouse gas emissions. We must rethink our food choices and diets to create a more sustainable future - it's non-negotiable. It's been energizing and inspiring to see a strong focus on food this week, and to learn from other trailblazing leaders. Onward! #DeliciousClimateAction #SustainableFood #FutureOfFood

The next three months are critical for making commitments that put us on track to meaningfully reduce carbon emissions. Join us tomorrow for Food Day at #ClimateWeekNYC to learn how the food industry can step up to the plate! Register here: https://lnkd.in/ebUGQgds

We'll be at #ClimateWeekNYC next week, co-hosting a WRI Food/Coolfood event with the NYC Mayor's Office of Food Policy's Plant-Powered Carbon Challenge. At ‘Step Up Your Plate: A Mixer to Help the Food Industry Cut Emissions’, guests will hear insights from WRI's new ‘Food Service Playbook for Promoting Sustainable Food Choices. Hosted by our MD Juliane Caillouette Noble, a panel discussion will then tackle how to operationalise such strategies in real-life food settings. The event will end with a fun speed networking session you don’t want to miss! Sign up here 👇 https://lnkd.in/e9ABA8GU
