I wonder if was a loaf of bread from the local bakers or one with 50+ ingredients and a good few hundred road miles under its belt.
think these scientists could do with taking a few months off and just leaving everyone alone for a while. Fed up with it.
How come they never seem to investigate the CO2 footprint of hairdressing or nail bars, or the gambling industry, or fashion industry, or pets, or gyms, or swimming pools or peloton bicycles?????
Too difficult or too unpopular or no targeted funding available?

What do they want everyone to do?! Stop eating?!
It's blatantly fossil fuels which causes climate change.

Usually it's to fund their next round of research.

It's the industrial process used to make bread and the transport (most bread sold in the Westcountry is made in the Midlands) that make such a big carbon footprint.
Mill locally grown wheat in the neighbourhood watermill and bake it in the bread oven at the back of your fireplace, is the way forward!

Market share is the root of all evil. Bread we buy from farm shop a mile away is from a bakery 5 miles away. Every town should have its own bakeries. Instead we have lorries hauling everything from bread to ready made sandwiches up and down the motorway network 24/7. Insane.

Why do they keep focusing on food production in the CO2 debate. What about global air travel and global shipping?
Indeed,we had the perfect system 50 years ago then what did we do…..

Depends on who pays for the Studies/Research.
If Tesco commissioned a study on out-of-town shopping versus a butcher and a baker in every High Street, you don't need a degree to predict what the result would be.

Absolutely agree. Local production has to have less environmental impact but probably more costly due to volume.

wasn't it Napoleon who made it law in France that every village must have a bakery?

Perhaps their students might also like to come out against beer and lager, which also uses yeast, that create CO2.
…….And for the really well off Students, they can cut out their Champagne this evening too, for the same reason.
Or any fizzy drinks, all of which have CO2 added to make it fizzy.
(The irony being that they were days away from having to stop production earlier this year due to the fertiliser industry suspending production due to high gas prices, despite campaigners saying how bad it is because the byproduct which is CO2, ALL of which is used and is vital to other industries, especially food and drink manufacturers!)
Let them drink water.
Like feck they will!
