Make a positive impact on our climate with your next plate!
Coolfood Meals are recipes that have been identified to have a low carbon footprint, meeting the level of food-related emissions the World Resource Institute’s (WRI) research say we need meals to have by 2030. Coolfood Meals are a simple and delicious way for you to help the planet! Using an ingredients list, WRI calculates a dish’s carbon footprint by analyzing the agricultural supply chain and land used to produce the meal. If the carbon footprint falls below an established per-meal threshold and meets nutritional standards, it is certified as a Coolfood Meal.
