Pet Platypus In California

Eco-labels in 2008 at Casino


In 2008, the French group Casino inform its customers about the environmental impact of its products through new tags. Developed by the firm Bio Intelligence Service and validated by the French Agency environmental and energy management (ADEME), they will contain encrypted information and a color code and indicate the mass and CO2 content of the package (mass of greenhouse gases emitted to produce the packaging), recyclability and the distance traveled by food. This initiative will be phased in during 2008 3000 cover brand products and hundreds will be analyzed before the end of 2007.

regime "100 miles"


Quite a challenge, which is more fully aligned with the initiative Plane Red: two North American writers have launched the scheme "100 miles" (160 kilometers). The principle is simple: for one year, they have fed that food products to 160 miles away. More information here (in French) and here (official website in English). Given the relative extent of U.S. and Belgian territories, a transposition of the scheme home should not exceed 50 km. So who is ready to meet this challenge?
