It found that higher emissions were associated with younger age, higher BMI, higher educational level, and urban residence.
It estimated energy-adjusted greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE) from diet and examined differences across age, BMI, physical activity, marital status, education, smoking, and residence. The strongest associations were found between higher GHGE and younger age, higher BMI, higher educational level, and urban residence (all P < 0.001). The authors note that the association with BMI, after energy adjustment, may indicate differences in food choices rather than just energy intake.
