Abstract
⺠A survey of 428 supermarket shoppers evaluated the use of environmental food labels. ⺠Consumer demand is strong for carbon labels but interpretation can be confusing. ⺠Younger consumers favour of carbon labels most, but for within-product comparisons. ⺠The success of policy initiatives is limited whilst relying on consumer responsibility. ⺠More effective linkages between food policy and food market actors are needed.
