5) Food production can lead to high carbon emissions because of the required refrigeration for preservation of the food. Another factor is the transportation of the food, which most often uses fossil fuels. The transformation of forests into farmland can also release many greenhouse gases, as the carbon within all of the trees will be released into the atmosphere.

Read the bullet list in the section titled "The carbon footprint of food waste". Explain at least 3 ways how food production/waste can lead to high carbon emissions.
