You can have the greatest impact on your carbon footprint by reducing the number of flights you take but changing your diet can help too.
Recently I stopped drinking dairy milk and moved to oat milk. That’s when I came across Oatly.
You may know the brand: their advertising stands out. These are two of my favourites…
Oatly already use carbon labelling
I was reading the carton to check how much calcium Oatly delivers compared with dairy milk when I noticed this message to the ‘food industry’ (click on the images to see a larger version):
Consumers typically underestimate carbon cost of food
The idea of including the carbon cost of food together with their nutritional content is not a new one.
Consumers typically underestimate the carbon impact of the food they eat. If all foods listed this information, it would help us all make better choices.
