Understanding carbon labels

Do you understand what this means?

A till survey reported by ClimateChangeCorp has found that just 28 per cent of customers from UK pharmacist Boots knew that a product carbon footprint related to climate change. And 44 per cent confused it with fair trade.

But the survey showed a majority thought it was important that a figure was given on how much carbon was used during an item’s production. Another problem was that while few products carry the labels, even clued-up consumers cannot compare like with like.
