New research from the UK suggests that nearly 75 percent of UK shoppers are in agreement with the government plans to move forward with voluntary carbon footprint label on food items. UK Consumers are effectively saying "give us carbon footprint labels on food".
The survey of more than 400 supermarket shoppers was conducted across all major UK supermarket chains. It asked people if they would be interested in carbon footprint labeling, 72 percent want it. However, when asked about their own personal carbon footprint 83 percent of people did not know.
With sustainable business strategies getting a lot of play - can this type of labeling be far behind in the USA? Companies will continue to to grow their triple bottom line, BUT will they want to put it on a label?
