Should consumers be told the carbon footprint of the products they buy? And if so, how? In recent years, a shift in customer attitudes towards climate change has caused businesses to up their game when it comes to showcasing the environmental impact of products. But just how transparent it this? How much do buyers want to know about how sustainable their shopping is?  Evan Davis and guests discuss the highly complex issues around carbon labelling and how best to communicate sustainable business practices. Guests Emma Keller, Head of Sustainability UK & Ireland, Nestle
Barry Clavin, Ethics and Sustainability Reporting Manager, Co-Op
Hugh Jones, Managing Director, The Carbon Trust Producer: Lucinda Borrell
Sound: Neil Churchill
Production Coordinators: Iona Hammond and Siobhan Reed
