Abstract
- We used life cycle assessment to examine carbon footprints of seafood products consumed in Australia.
- We determined differences in the sustainability of seafood imports and domestic counterparts.
- Carbon footprints of imported and domestic seafood are similar despite the transport distance.
- Opportunity exists to combine LCA with existing seafood sustainability criteria.
