CONCITO and 2-0 LCA
CONCITO is Denmark’s leading climate and environmental research organisation that developed the Big Climate Database v1.2 in collaboration with 2.-0 LCA consultants. The database provides greenhouse gas emission factors for over 500 food products across multiple European markets based on life cycle assessments from production to retail to support sustainable consumption choices.

Climate Transparency is a global partnership organisation funded by the German Government, World Bank, and several other bodies. It seeks to stimulate climate action in G20 countries through enhanced transparency. The Climate Transparency Report annually provides the emission intensity of electricity generation for various countries, based on the emissions from the respective grid mix.
