We assessed the consumer welfare effects of two generic food miles labels: ""carbon dioxide (CO2) emission"" label and ""time and number of kilometers"" label. Using data from a choice experiment, our results generally suggest that a mandatory labeling policy for either type of label would have a positive welfare effect. However, a label informing consumers about the time and number of kilometers the food product has traveled provides greater positive welfare effects than a label informing consumers about the amount of CO2 emission. © 2013 by The American Council on Consumer Interests. |
