New Ahuntsic initiative raises awareness about carbon footprint of cafeteria dishes

Collège Ahuntsic is launching a sustainability-focused initiative to raise awareness about the environmental impact of food served at the institution’s cafeteria. Ahuntsic has partnered with Polycarbone and Compass–the company that runs the college’s cafeteria–to display information about the carbon footprint of 40 of the cafeteria’s most popular meals. The carbon footprint will be displayed on screens in the cafeteria so that those purchasing food can compare the carbon footprint of each dish and make informed decisions about their food practices.
