The Carbon Footprint of Food
In reality, the distance your food has traveled to reach you often makes a really, really small part of the carbon footprint of the food that you're eating. When we look at the differences in carbon footprint of foods, we are between the highest and lowest. We're talking about 10 to 50 times as much. So being an Israel, if I were to eat tofu imported from Australia, just to pick a place very far away, would have a much lower carbon footprint than my neighbor's cow.
