Transporting ingredients and food products accounts for nearly one-fifth of all carbon emissions in the food system — a much bigger slice of the emissions pie than previously thought, according to the first comprehensive estimate of the industry’s global carbon footprint.
对食品行业全球碳足迹的首次全面评估显示，运输配料和食品的碳排放量占食品系统总碳排放量的近五分之一，这一比例远远超出此前的预期。
Clearing land for farming, raising livestock and moving food to and from shops adds a large amount of greenhouse gas to the atmosphere. The United Nations estimates that growing,processingand packaging food accounts for one-third of all greenhouse-gas emissions. This has led to an explosion of studieslooking intohow food systems impact the climate, from causing damaging land-use changes to releasing greenhouse gases, says Jason Hill, an environmental scientist at the University of Minnesota in St Paul.
开垦土地用于耕种、饲养牲畜以及向商店来回运送食物，都会向大气中排放大量温室气体。联合国估计，种植、加工和包装食品占所有温室气体排放量的三分之一。美国圣保罗明尼苏达大学的环境科学家杰森·希尔表示，这使得探究粮食系统对气候影响方式的研究激增，从破坏性的土地使用方式变化到释放温室气体等研究。
But the complexity of the food system has made it challenging to measure how much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is a direct result of the system’s emissions, particularly those from transportation. Previously, most studies underestimated emissions because they focused on only those generated by moving a single product — such as a chocolate bar — to and from the shop. This method tends to miss themultitudeof other trucks, ships and aeroplanes involved ingatheringall the ingredients needed to make the bar in the first place, says Li.

Hoping to close this gap, Mengyu Li, a sustainability researcher at the University of Sydney in Australia, and her colleaguesamasseddata from 74 countries and regions, and looked at where the food came from, where it went and how it moved from one place to the next. They found that, in 2017, food transportation added emissions equivalent to 3.0 gigatonnes of CO2 to the atmosphere, up to 7.5 times what was previously estimated.
为了缩小研究结果与实际的差距，李梦宇和同事收集了来自74个国家和地区的数据，研究食物的来源、去向以及如何从一个地方转移到另一个地方。他们发现，2017年，食品运输向大气中增加了相当于30亿吨二氧化碳的排放量，达到了此前估计的7.5倍。
Wealthy nations were responsible for generating nearly half of international food-transport emissions, despite accounting for only around 12% of the global population. Low-income countries — where around half of the global population lives — generated just 20% of international food-transport emissions.
尽管富裕国家的人口只占全球人口的12%，但它们产生的粮食运输碳排放却占全球总量的近一半。占全球约一半人口的低收入国家，其排放量仅占国际粮食运输排放总量的20%。
