Low carbon footprint

Products from lower carbon footprint categories will help reduce the carbon emissions from your diet.

A green badge means that the product passes our criteria for being low carbon footprint. A grey badge means it is medium, high or very high. Less carbon emissions means less climate change. Reduce your footprint by choosing products from lower carbon footprint categories (instead of others!) We analyse academic studies which calculate the carbon emissions from food and drink and link these studies to supermarket categories. We follow this approach because product level carbon footprints are extremely rare. The carbon footprint badge covers food and drink only and applies to the product, not the brand or company.
