Q & A
1. Ingredients and Sourcing Plant-Based Ingredients: The mixes are primarily made from grains, pulses, and spices—all plant-based. Local Sourcing: Assuming ingredients are sourced locally, reducing transportation emissions. Emission Factor for Plant-Based Ingredients: Approximately 1.0 kg CO₂e per kg (Poore & Nemecek, 2018). Calculations: Emissions from Ingredients: 1.0 kg CO₂e/kg × 1.5 kg = 1.5 kg CO₂e 2. Production Process Minimal Processing: The mixes involve drying and grinding, which are less energy-intensive processes. Energy Efficiency: Assuming standard energy use without significant renewable energy input. Emission Factor for Processing: Approximately 0.5 kg CO₂e per kg (Garnett, 2011). Calculations: Emissions from Processing: 0.5 kg CO₂e/kg × 1.5 kg = 0.75 kg CO₂e 3. Packaging Eco-Friendly Packaging: Assuming recyclable or biodegradable materials are used. Lightweight Packaging: Reduces emissions during transportation. Emission Factor for Packaging: Approximately 0.3 kg CO₂e per kg of product weight. Calculations: Emissions from Packaging: 0.3 kg CO₂e/kg × 1.7 kg = 0.51 kg CO₂e 4. Transportation Local Distribution: Short transportation distances assumed. Optimized Logistics: Efficient delivery methods reduce emissions. Emission Factor for Transportation: Approximately 0.1 kg CO₂e per kg. Calculations: Emissions from Transportation: 0.1 kg CO₂e/kg × 1.7 kg = 0.17 kg CO₂e Total Estimated Carbon Emissions for the Ready Mix Combo Total Emissions: Ingredients: 1.5 kg CO₂e Processing: 0.75 kg CO₂e Packaging: 0.51 kg CO₂e Transportation: 0.17 kg CO₂e Grand Total: 2.93 kg CO₂e To provide a more precise comparison, we'll consider specific traditional e-commerce ready mix products commonly available in the market. For this example, let's use: Traditional Pancake Mixes (e.g., brands like Aunt Jemima or Bisquick) Instant Cake Mixes (e.g., Betty Crocker or Pillsbury) Weight: Comparable to the Ready Mix Combo, at 1.7 kg total. These products often contain animal-based ingredients like milk powder and eggs and may use imported ingredients, leading to higher carbon emissions. 1. Ingredients Animal-Based Ingredients: Includes milk powder, eggs, and butter substitutes. Imported Ingredients: Some components may be sourced internationally. Emission Factor for Ingredients: Approximately 5.0 kg CO₂e per kg (Poore & Nemecek, 2018). Calculations: Emissions from Ingredients: 5.0 kg CO₂e/kg × 1.5 kg = 7.5 kg CO₂e 2. Production Process Energy-Intensive Processing: Processes like pasteurization, spray drying for milk powder, and emulsification. Emission Factor for Processing: Approximately 1.5 kg CO₂e per kg. Calculations: Emissions from Processing: 1.5 kg CO₂e/kg × 1.5 kg = 2.25 kg CO₂e 3. Packaging Conventional Packaging: Often uses multi-layered packaging with plastic and aluminum, which is hard to recycle. Emission Factor for Packaging: Approximately 0.5 kg CO₂e per kg. Calculations: Emissions from Packaging: 0.5 kg CO₂e/kg × 1.7 kg = 0.85 kg CO₂e 4. Transportation Long-Distance Shipping: Products and ingredients may be shipped internationally. Emission Factor for Transportation: Approximately 0.5 kg CO₂e per kg. Calculations: Emissions from Transportation: 0.5 kg CO₂e/kg × 1.7 kg = 0.85 kg CO₂e Total Estimated Carbon Emissions for Traditional Ready Mix Products Total Emissions: Ingredients: 7.5 kg CO₂e Processing: 2.25 kg CO₂e Packaging: 0.85 kg CO₂e Transportation: 0.85 kg CO₂e Grand Total: 11.45 kg CO₂e Carbon Emissions Reduced by Choosing the Ready Mix Combo Emissions Reduction: Traditional Ready Mix Products: 11.45 kg CO₂e Ready Mix Combo: 2.93 kg CO₂e Total Reduction: 11.45 kg CO₂e - 2.93 kg CO₂e = 8.52 kg CO₂e Conclusion By choosing the Ready Mix Combo, consumers can reduce carbon emissions by approximately 8.52 kg CO₂e per purchase compared to traditional e-commerce ready mix products containing animal-based ingredients and using conventional production methods. This significant reduction is attributed to: Plant-Based Ingredients: Lower emissions compared to animal-based products. Local Sourcing: Minimizes transportation emissions for ingredients. Minimal Processing: Reduces energy consumption during production. Eco-Friendly Packaging: Decreases emissions associated with packaging materials. Efficient Distribution: Local and optimized logistics cut down transportation emissions. Assumptions and Notes Traditional Ready Mix Products: Examples Used: Common brands like Aunt Jemima Pancake Mix, Betty Crocker Cake Mix, which often contain animal-based ingredients and may not prioritize sustainable practices. Product Weight: Assumed to be similar at 1.7 kg for a fair comparison. Weights Used: Net Weight (Product Only): 1.5 kg (used for ingredients and processing emissions). Gross Weight (Including Packaging): 1.7 kg (used for packaging and transportation emissions). Emission Factors: Based on average values from reputable scientific studies. Actual emissions may vary depending on specific products and supply chains. Calculations: Rounded to two decimal places for clarity. Intended to provide an estimation, not exact figures. Sustainability Remarks Adjusted: The sustainability aspects previously attributed to Chivda are equally applicable to the Ready Mix Combo, given the plant-based ingredients and potential for local sourcing and eco-friendly practices.
