Eaternity Poster

This is educational poster of CO₂ values of food, arranged for a one-view spotting on what's good and what is bad for our climate. It comes together with a sticker-pack and the awesome support of http://codecheck.info to provide carbon emissions of products as a feature.

Plan / Todo

  • We want to build a website (jekyll? - github pages? - fancy animation - domain), a forum (what software?), an FAQ to promote the poster.
  • If possible we want to crowdfund to place the poster as an appendix of newspapers (campact?).
  • It should be possible to order (webstore?) the poster together with an optional sticker pack (design?) and other promotional material.
  • We put the poster source and the CO₂ values into a public github repository for public use and external review (data format?).
  • We send a poster print to people we like (including our crowdfunders!)
  • Include the reference to CodeCheck for their awesome contribution and publishing of the data.
  • Get an ISBN number for the poster? -> QR Code für Webseite aufbringen.

LCA values

LCA values are contributed by various researchers. See also: https://eaternity.org/foodprint/database

Food Unit normalization

To provide a meaning comparison between ingredients and how climate-friendly they are we normalize values with the FoodUnit. See also: https://eaternity.org/blog/Eaternity-Rating-Update -> we really need to be explicit and transparent here!

Working document

The poster is released in version as a sketch document with https://kactus.io . See latest release here: https://github.com/Eaternity/eaternity-poster/releases/.

Poster Klima-Legende

So wird die Klimaverträglichkeit einzelner Lebensmittel vergleichbar: Wer zum Beispiel ein Drittel seines Tagesbedarfs an Nährwerten mit Gemüse decken würde, käme auf einen CO₂-Wert (für Wachstum/Produktion/Transport) von 620 Gramm. Hummer? Über 14 Kilo.

Der CO₂ Wert ist in Gramm CO₂-Äquivalente, jeweils für 1/3 des total Tagesbedarfs pro Produkt angeben.

  • ★★★ Im Ziel der klimafreundlichen Ernährung (50% Besser)

  • ★★☆ Besser als der Durchschnitt
  • ★☆☆ Schlechter als der Durchschnitt
  • ☆☆☆ Super schlecht (300% mehr als der Durchschnitt)

Portionen: Werden für den fairen Vergleich angegeben. Sie werden auf der Nährwertbilanz des Produktes berechnet. Je höher die Zahl, desto mehr stillen 100 g vom Produkt deinen Hunger.
