Questions and answers

What can I do?
Lots. The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) says the world cannot meet its emissions targets without changes by individuals.
It says:

• 
  Buy less meat, milk, cheese and butter and more locally sourced seasonal food - and throw less of it away
  
• 
  Change how you get around. Drive electric cars but walk or cycle short distances. Take trains and buses instead of planes
  
• 
  Use video-conferencing instead of business travel
  
• 
  Use a washing line instead of a tumble dryer
  
• 
  Insulate homes
  
• 
  Demand low carbon in every consumer product
  

Research reported by the IPCC also said people tend to overestimate the energy-saving potential of lighting, and underestimate the energy used to heat water.
It also says people don't think a lot about the energy used for the creation of products they buy.
Why has so much changed in food labelling for personal health but not planet health?
In 2013, the government set out plans for a consistent "traffic light" food labelling system to help people easily understand what's in their food.
But we don't have a similar system for the carbon footprint or environmental impact.
It would involve considering things such as air freight versus importing food by sea, the use of water in food production, as well as the impact on land and forests.
Tesco did try it in 2007 - it started calculating the carbon footprint of every one of its 70,000 products.
But five years later the supermarket gave up, saying it was "a minimum of several months' work" for each product.
In 2007, Walkers Crisps was the first UK firm to put carbon footprint figures on its products. But the company confirmed to the BBC that it has since removed them.
