Carbon Labeling for Consumer Food Goods
Shewmake, Sharon; Okrent, Abigail M.; Thabrew, Lanka; … - Agricultural and Applied Economics Association - AAEA - 2012
We construct a model to predict how consumers will respond to better information about the carbon content of 42 foods and a nonfood composite as well as product categories through a label, and provide guidance as to what kinds of goods would provide the highest CO¬2eq emission reductions...
