The CANDI project's first stage identified a need for standardized carbon footprint calculation models in the food industry to build consumer trust and drive behavioral change. While consumers expressed a willingness to alter food choices based on environmental data, the report highlights that such information must be easily digestible and provided at the point of decision-making. The project also notes a lack of transparency in industry methods and a need for government support to manage the socio-economic trade-offs of transitioning to sustainable diets.
