Plz help, i am not good at geography, explain how importing food from abroad (high food miles) increases carbon footprints brainiest will be given

Explanation:

This adds miles to the journey of an item of food and therefore means more transport costs and more pollution. ... For example, some foods do not grow easily in the UK and need heated greenhouses. This means the food produced locally may have a larger carbon footprint than that grown in a warmer climate.

F. Y. I im not that good at geography to but i like it

Hey!

Importing food from abroad (i.e. from South Africa) adds to the size of a carbon footprint because the amount of fuels used, (oil, petrol, diesel, kerosene and many more), increases with the distance travelled...

And more fuels that are burnt in the preparation of the product, transporting the product to the distribution centres, shipping and deliveries results in the increase the amount of CO2 and other greenhouse gases which eventually, in the long term, add to Climate Change/Global Warming...

Explanation:
