There are many factors to consider when choosing chocolate. Flavor, shape, weight, cocoa percentage, and price are all important, but have you considered the environmental impact of your chocolate?
Join us on a data-driven journey from the planting of a cocoa bean to the waste treatment of the packaging. Below, we unwrap a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) conducted by PRé Sustainability, using SimaPro Craft powered by ecoinvent data. The study is structured on an average, 100g Swiss milk chocolate bar, and through it we will show where chocolate’s climate impacts hide.
