Fig. 1: Global environmental footprints resulting from household consumption in the EU27.

Breakdown of footprints, distinguishing between food and non-food (left bar), and ten food categories (right bar). The left y axes display the absolute footprints in the respective environmental impact measurement unit. The right y axes display the share of global food-related planetary boundaries (as quantified by ref. 3) attributed to EU27 households’ food consumption. For biodiversity loss, no share can be defined due to the different metrics employed. NEC denotes not elsewhere classified food items.
