Why is there still no information on product packaging and advertisements about the level of CO2 emissions from the production process of a specific product?
Why is there still no information on product packaging and advertising about the level of emissions and environmental pollution generated during the production process of a specific product?
On the packaging of anti-products, products that are harmful to health, stimulants such as cigarettes, there is information warning the citizens of consumers about the harmfulness to health of smoking cigarettes. If citizens have succeeded, through activists in NGOs and some political circles, in lobbying for compulsory information on the harmfulness to health, the risk of developing lung cancer and other diseases resulting from smoking, cigarettes, why analogous solutions still do not work for other types of anti-products and harmful stimulants, including stimulants to which one can easily become addicted. Besides, one of the most negative aspects of using some other stimulants is causing car accidents after drinking and driving. Many fatal car accidents are caused after taking intoxicating stimulants such as alcohol and, for example, some painkillers, tranquilizers and the like. So why is it that the packaging of these drugs and their advertisements do not warn about the negative consequences of their improper use.
Analogous is the issue of the problem of emissivity, i.e. the emission of CO2, methane and other greenhouse gases and environmental pollution by waste emitted during the production process that is harmful to human health and the state of the biosphere and biodiversity of the planet's natural ecosystems. After all, it has been known for years that greenhouse gas emissions generated by production and other economic processes are a major factor in the realized greenhouse effect of the planet's atmosphere since the beginning of the first industrial revolution and the increasingly rapid process of global warming. Many citizens, with a view to the future of their children's and grandchildren's livelihoods in the future of the next decades of time, would probably choose among highly substitutable products and/or services those whose production process involves lower levels of greenhouse gas emissions and/or lower emissions of polluting wastes that are harmful to human health and to the state of the biosphere and biodiversity. Apparently, the activities of pro-social, pro-environmental and pro-climate non-governmental organizations and activist organizations carrying out pro-social, pro-environmental and/or pro-climate activities are too weak in the face of lobbying by business, industrial corporations, many companies and enterprises that can afford to finance election campaigns of political parties pursuing their business interests.
I am conducting research on this issue. I have included the conclusions of my research in the following article:

I invite you to get acquainted with the issues described in the publications given above and to scientific cooperation in these issues.
In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:
Why is there still no information on product packaging and advertising about the level of emissions and environmental pollution generated during the production process of a particular product?
Why is there still no information on product packaging and advertising about the level of CO2 emissions from the production process of a specific product?
