Abstract

Over the last few decades we have witnessed increasing concern with environmental issues, particularly in the industrialized world. The ‘state’ of the world has become an engaging issue for people in general. The focus is not only on issues of pollution and climate change, but also on the utilization of natural resources. One of the means by which this concern can be turned into action is through labelling schemes that provide the consumer with information on the environmental properties of a certain product. The growing concern over health and food safety has also helped raise interest in food labelling schemes—consumers are keen to know where products originate and how they are produced.
