Foods you buy at the grocery store may soon have labeling on the packaging that indicates the impact it has on the climate, per sustainability goals established by governing bodies.

Chief Scientific Adviser for the U.K. Food Standards Agency Robin May told the Financial Times,

People are much more attentive to food now. We know that a very significant portion of the population has shifted their diet or tried to shift their diet in the last 12 to 18 months in order to become more sustainable [and] Consumers [have a right to] honest, transparent labelling of food.

According to data compiled by Carbon Trust in 2020, two-thirds of consumers namely from France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, the U.K. and the U.S.; are the most open and supportive of labeling that indicates the number of emissions that product has.

[The survey] aligns with the growth in corporate demand for product carbon footprinting and labelling that we have witnessed over the past year.

Passing this information on to increasingly well-informed and climate-conscious consumers can also enhance a company’s reputation and market share.

But Grant Reid, CEO of candy and snack giant Mars Incorporated, is more cautious about this approach.

There’s a much bigger consumer challenge than just popping [a carbon footprint] on the label. These labels are a good experiment. They are good steps in the right direction. But it’s not sufficient.

Reid told Time

Even so, Tasting Tables wrote, “Consumers may need carbon labels to make the right choices.”

Moreover, Tasting Table says, ‘Denmark has already agreed to setting aside $1.3 million to “develop carbon labelling proposals” before the end of 2022, while food companies like Oatly and Quorn have already taken the initiative to inform the public about the carbon footprint of their products. As CarbonCloud’s chief executive David Bryngelsson puts it, access to accurate information is important, because “the public’s gut feeling is ‘absolutely terrible’ when it comes to judging which steps of food production created the most emissions.”‘

Tasting Table also reminds readers that at last year’s COP26 climate summit, the food items served to all delegates and attendees listed the purported amount of carbon emitted from the meal – something The WinePress noted in a report last year, where the capitol of Finland decided to no longer serve meat:

The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.

Proverbs 12:5

The cited articles do not mention this, but this will quite obviously be the future soon enough. These surge of articles on this topic coming out in recent days are an indication this surely be another agenda that will come down the pike; as the media does not report news: they tell you want to think and prime you for the handler’s wicked devices.

Moreover, I have no doubt this will be linked up with a social credit score. I reported last year that Mastercard already has a carbon calculator in place. As the famine around the world gets worse, and rationing commences; food ID’s, vaccine passports, and social credit will come into play. Therefore, if people continue to eat things like meat, or anything that is deemed to have high carbon emissions, then their social credit scores will get dinged.

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

  • One can hunt, fish, and trap, and I won’t ask for permission. I would recommend yo-yo Reels, and slingshots, no noise and effective. I figure when I can’t work or purchase food, I take my dog and go for a long walk and not come back. That is my plan, if The Lord tarries.
