   @strypey Is it going to report the carbon particulate emissions or the CO₂ ones?
   
   Such calculations are mostly trivial, the issue is actually getting your hands on such information (the cost of business shipments are not public information).

     #ShowerThoughts: I'm imagining a tool that can;

     * ingest data about all the products imported into a country as food

     * identify the cost of each shipment, both in money paid by the importing country, and in carbon emitted

     * enable each product to be identified against an index that rates its chances of making the population more or less healthy.

     Then produce reports on what food imports cost the country in payment, and whether it increases or reduces overall health spending.
