If I cared to, I expect I could find out if these (presumably English or UK) averages apply to me, given for example that I do not shop by car, or if they apply to New Zealand apples as well as English ones.
I also wonder what the carbon multiplier effect might be of a banana compared with an apple – for example how much carbon might be produced by the way an apple farmer spends the money I pay him, compared with the same amount paid to a banana farmer?
These estimates come from a book by Mike Berners-Lee, who surely must be a relative of the inventor of the web ?
