The Cool Food Pledge is a new platform to help hospitals offer diners more of what they want while slashing food-related greenhouse gas emissions, saving costs, and improving health.
The pledge is a cross-sector initiative championed by the World Resources Institute. Health care is showing leadership with 64 facilities signed on so far to reduce their emissions from food purchasing, along with a wide variety of universities, cities, and businesses.
The 64 health care signatories serve more than 60 million (combined) meals annually. The Cool Food Pledge is a free benefit for Practice Greenhealth members and available to non-members at an affordable rate.
