Sgòr Uaine: buaidh àrainneachdail thoraidhean bìdh

Green-Score

’S e sgòr àrainneachdail bho A gu E a th’ anns an Sgòr Uaine a tha ga dhèanamh furasta coimeas a dhèanamh eadar buaidh thoraidhean bìdh air an àrainneachd.

Nota: ’S e an Sgòr Uaine an t-ainm ùr air an Sgòr Eag-eòlais bho dheireadh 2024.

Why an environmental score?

More and more consumers are concerned about the impact of their food not only on their health, but also on the health of our planet. Thanks to the Nutri-Score, it is now very easy to take into account the nutritional quality of products when purchasing, but it is very difficult if not impossible to compare their environmental footprint.

It is urgent to provide consumers with clear information about this environmental footprint, so that they can easily and quickly compare it for several products. Is e seo a tha an ìre àrainneachdail Green-Score a’ ceadachadh.

An Sgòr Uaine, inneal airson biadh nas seasmhaiche

Bidh an Sgòr Uaine a’ cuideachadh luchd-cleachdaidh a tha airson gluasad a dh’ionnsaigh daithead nas seasmhaiche, le bhith gan brosnachadh gu:

  • Eat less meat but of better quality
  • Consume more organic products and products with quality labels
  • Favor local and seasonal products, with little packaging
  • Limit products containing problematic ingredients (endangered fish, unsustainable palm oil)

Dè a th’ anns an Sgòr Uaine?

Tha an Sgòr Uaine air a dhealbhadh air modail coltach ris an Sgòr Nutri: 's e ìre bho A gu E a th' ann a tha a' toirt geàrr-chunntas air 15 buaidh àrainneachdail. Tha an sgòr Green-Score air a nochdadh le suaicheantas dathte ann an cumadh duilleige le litir bho A (buaidh glè bheag) gu E (buaidh glè àrd).

The benchmark score: life cycle analysis (LCA) with data from the Agribalyse database

For each product category, a benchmark score is established using data from the Agribalyse environmental database designed by ADEME and INRAE. These data correspond to the life cycle analysis (LCA) of the products.

Life cycle assessment (LCA)

Life cycle analysis is a standardized assessment method for carrying out a multi-stage environmental assessment and multi-criteria:

  • 6 production steps: agriculture, processing, packaging, transportation, distribution and consumption
  • 14 environmental impact indicators: climate change/carbon footprint, ozone layer depletion, ionizing radiation, land, water, and energy use; pollution of air and marine and fresh water (particles, acidification, eutrophication); and depletion of resources.

Bonuses and penalties to refine the grading of each product

In order to take into account certain impacts on the environment which are not covered well by the life cycle analysis (such as biodiversity) and the specificities of each product within the same category, the score of reference is modulated with bonuses and penalties:

Mode of production

A bonus is awarded to products that have an official label, a label or a certification that guarantees environmental benefits (organic, fair trade, HVE, Label Rouge, Bleu Blanc Cœur, MSC/ASC).

Origin of ingredients

A bonus is awarded based on the origin of the ingredients. This bonus takes into account the impact on transportation and also the environmental policy of each producer's country.

Endangered species

A penalty is given to products that contain ingredients that have significant negative impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems, such as palm oil, the production of which is responsible for massive deforestation.

Packaging

A penalty is calculated to take into account the circularity of packaging (use of recycled raw material and recyclability) and overpacking.

An increased need for transparency to better measure and reduce environmental impacts

Gus an Sgòr Uaine obrachadh a-mach gu ceart, feumar fiosrachadh a bhith agad nach eil air a shònrachadh air a’ phacaid (leithid tùs agus an dearbh cheudad de gach tàthchuid) no nach eil ri fhaighinn ach ainneamh ann an cruth a ghabhas cleachdadh (leithid liosta de na pàirtean uile den phacaid leis na seòrsaichean plastaig a chaidh a chleachdadh).

Bithear a’ cleachdadh luachan cuibheasach nuair nach eil am fiosrachadh seo ri fhaighinn fhathast, ach tha sinn a-nis ag iarraidh air a h-uile duine ar cuideachadh le bhith a’ cruinneachadh an fhiosrachaidh seo a bhios glè fheumail airson an Sgòr Uaine ach cuideachd airson mòran chleachdaidhean eile.

Mar as urrainn don Sgòr Uaine leasachadh thoraidhean agus lùghdachadh an cuid buaidh àrainneachdail a bhrosnachadh

Tha dà luamhan gnìomh aig an Green-Score:

  • Leis an Sgòr Uaine, faodaidh luchd-cleachdaidh roghainn nas fiosraichte a dhèanamh le bhith a’ toirt aire do bhuaidh àrainneachdail thoraidhean mar shlat-tomhais taghaidh.
  • Bidh an Sgòr Uaine cuideachd a’ brosnachadh luchd-saothrachaidh gus na toraidhean aca a leasachadh gus am faigh iad ìre Sgòr Uaine nas àirde.

’S e an amas mu dheireadh do luchd-saothrachaidh Sgòr Uaine an cuid thoraidhean a leasachadh, oir bidh e na bhuannachd do gach neach-cleachdaidh.

The energy rating of household appliances has thus profoundly transformed the market (try to find a fridge rated E, or even D or C!). And the democratization of Nutri-Score has also encouraged many manufacturers to improve the nutritional quality of their products to obtain a better rating (to the point that some French manufacturers even brag about it on bus stops, such as Brossard for its Savane cake).

To encourage product improvements, our platform for producers automatically analyzes data provided by manufacturers to identify avenues for improvement. The platform thus identifies all the products that would obtain a better Nutri-Score score with a slight change in composition (a reduction in salt of 5% for example).

A dh’ aithghearr, leigidh an àrd-ùrlar leinn dòighean a mholadh gus a’ bhuaidh eag-eòlasach a lughdachadh agus Sgòr Uaine nas fheàrr fhaighinn (mar eisimpleir le bhith a’ cleachdadh plastaig nas ath-chuairteachail airson pacadh, no le bhith a’ cur ola eile an àite ola pailme).



Ciamar as urrainn dhuinn barrachd fhaighinn a-mach agus ciamar as urrainn dhuinn ar cuideachadh le bhith a’ leasachadh an Sgòr Uaine?

Tha fàilte air a h-uile duine ar cuideachadh le bhith a’ cruthachadh barrachd follaiseachd, a’ teagasg luchd-cleachdaidh, agus a’ brosnachadh leasachadh thoraidhean tro Green-Score.

Tha an Sgòr Uaine fhathast òg agus faodar a leasachadh gu cinnteach. Given the climate and environmental emergency, however, it seems important to us to make it available now.

Le bhith ag obair còmhla, bidh e comasach dhuinn an Sgòr Uaine a leasachadh mean air mhean, am foirmle aige a ghrinneachadh, agus an dàta a tha riatanach airson a thomhas a chruinneachadh.

Your feedback, observations and suggestions will therefore be very valuable.

Open Food Facts is a collaborative project supported by tens of thousands of volunteers and managed by a non-profit association with 3 employees.
Faodaidh tu ar cuideachadh aig maoineachadh a thoirt do bhuidseat Open Food Facts 2023 agus leantainn air adhart a’ leasachadh an Green-Score agus mòran phròiseactan eile gus daithead a h-uile duine a leasachadh. Thank you! ❤️
