Should a 10% reduction in carbon emissions be enough to qualify beef for a “low carbon” label, even though beef would need a 50% reduction in emissions to avoid being the worst climate change choice at the meat counter?
Yes
No
9.
The USDA has just announced a new “low-carbon” label for beef that produces 10% less carbon emissions. Beef that meets this new standard would still be the worst climate change choice at the meat counter. This new label makes just about as much sense as a “low cancer” cigarette. Are you concerned this new label will mislead consumers?
Yes, this new label implies that certain beef products are good climate change choices
Maybe, but it could still be helpful to consumers who buy beef
No, I am excited about this new label
I’m not sure /I need more information
