Welcome to May

We’re all curious about where our food comes from. Knowing where our veg is grown or how animals are raised helps us make wise choices about how we shop and what we eat. And we’re all familiar with nutritional information on packaging, including calories, fats, protein, and so on.

But have you ever thought about how what you put on your plate impacts the planet? Allow us to introduce you to the concept of carbon calories. We explain how a simple app can help you easily understand the carbon footprint of food. We’ve included three carbon-assessed recipes for you to try in the magazine, plus a carbon calorie recipe collection. It’s fun to use, so why not give it a go as you plan your meals over the two long bank holiday weekends.
