Food miles and carbon credits
Another note from Michael Molitor was about a New Zealand winery that was told by Tesco’s in London they would be canceling their orders because of the food miles involved. The winery became Carbon Neutral and has actually grown its export sales to Tesco’s as a result.
His big message to business was that carbon abatement is essential regardless of the size of the business.
This is a very big issue for Australian and New Zealand businesses selling to the UK and Europe.
