Climate · kg CO₂e/kg

How many kilograms of CO₂ equivalents are associated with one kilogram of product?

HOW TO READ ITkg CO₂e per kg · lower is better
01
WHY IT MATTERS

The problem

Food production, transport, preparation, consumption and waste account for a major share of global greenhouse-gas emissions. Product-level values are needed to identify the changes that matter.

02
HOW CONSUPEDIA BUILDS IT

Data & method

Consupedia’s climate value is based in part on the RISE Climate Database for Food. It covers production through possible industrial processing. A general transport contribution to Sweden can be added for imported products; downstream transport from industry via wholesaler to the meal organisation is not normally included.

03
WHAT THE RESULT MEANS

Interpretation

This is an absolute intensity metric. Lower kg CO₂e/kg is better. It can be multiplied by purchased or sold weight to analyse a portfolio or period.

Use climate · kg co₂e/kg intelligence where decisions happen.
