Carbon Footprint Labels on Food

A Tool for Sustainable Choices?

This workshop explores the role of different actors in making the food system more climate-friendly. Participants will reflect on their own definitions of climate-friendly food choices and identify key barriers preventing consumers from adopting more sustainable diets.

A central part of the session focuses on the methodologies used to measure carbon footprints, highlighting how results can vary depending on different assessment approaches. We will then examine high-impact and low-impact behavioral changes that consumers can adopt to reduce their dietary carbon footprint. The discussion will extend to the effectiveness of various carbon footprint labeling strategies within nutrition policy frameworks. The workshop concludes with a collaborative session to generate ideas on improving the climate impact of our food choices.
