For some consumers, carbon footprint information, however imperfect, is what they care about most, so even with a ton of sometimes conflicting information to sort through, it’s worth the effort. An advantage of third-party certification is that you can generally trust these seals and programs…you still need to learn what’s behind each seal though.

Not sure what good it would be suppliers unless they were very low on the list. But then you would have to consider whether every supplier would be honest with their information, would the public or other agencies be allowed to verify the information. In the end are we just making more work for ourselves in a world gone mad with information.
