What’s the Carbon Footprint of My Meal?
Climate change is closely tied to our food system: what we eat impacts the climate and the climate in turn impacts what we eat. There is a growing conversation locally and globally around determining the “carbon footprint” of the food we eat, meaning the amount of greenhouse gases that given foods release (directly or indirectly), contributing to climate change. But how, as residents, can we figure out what food choices have the smallest carbon footprint?
