Large Retailers Adopt Carbon Emission Report Cards
Large retailers are trying to go greener by taking up the idea of carbon emission report cards. These have been introduced by Shinsegae E-Mart and Homeplus and are used to track and disclose the amount of carbon dioxide emitted throughout the entire distribution process for individual products.

The goal is to give consumers a choice to purchase more eco-friendly products and to encourage producers to reduce carbon emissions.
