While Panera has always pushed the food conversation forward, this restaurant brand is taking a different approach this Earth Day. Over the past year, many people have learned to appreciate their impact on the environment. Can your food choices help to cool down the planet? Are you ready to get moving for Earth Day?

Panera believes that simple changes can make a big impact. When the restaurant brand announced its Cool Food Meals, it showed guests that climate-friendly, low carbon meals are a conscious choice. Some of the brand’s popular food choices are part of this initiative. As the first restaurant brand to adopt the World Resources Institute’s Cool Food Meals certification, the company believes that helping the planet is tasty and easy.

To bring this conversation to the table for Earth Day, Panera is offering 50% off soup. Did you know that every Panera soup is a Cool Food Meal? To celebrate that fact, the code COOLFOOD50 will give guests 50% off a soup purchase.

Panera shared the following fact. “On Earth Day, if every Panera customer ordered a Cool Food Meal, it would reduce greenhouse gas emissions equivalent of taking more than 1,100 passenger vehicles off the road for one year, when compared to the average American diet.”
