university dining halls, but may need to be combined
with behavior change communication efforts to yield
substantive and sustained behavior change, according
to the final report. To summarize the triple bottom line:
(1) people: education on carbon emissions can cause
people to eat healthier/more plant-based dishes, (2)
profit: healthcare costs can be minimized by proactively
approaching health and wellness, and (3) planet: carbon
emissions are being reduced through these efforts.
After the nudge behavior research was conducted and
the dining halls were released from the study, MDining
implemented the carbon emissions icons permanently
into their dining program, including retail operations
and catering. Carbon labels were added to the entire
menu in all units beginning in January 2023. The project
risks were vetted through the Graham Sustainability
Institute before funding was provided, ensuring that any
negative perceptions or possible consequences were
addressed ahead of time. During the vetting process, it
was crucial that guests continued to have an enjoyable
dining experience free of guilt or shame from choosing
a high-carbon item. The Graham Sustainability Institute
contributed funding to this research study allowing the
dining program to collaborate without any financial
implications.
While comprehensive data has yet to be released,
researchers concluded this work can be shared broadly
to both educate other institutions and allow them to
further the work to balance the environmental impact
of the food we choose. The team concluded that
using nudges to encourage individuals to consider the
environmental impact of their food choices can create
positive long-term personal health effects, reduced
reactive health care costs, and a positive environmental
impact resulting from eating a collective lower carbon
value diet.
