The production and consumption of food, throughout the whole supply chain, have negative and large impacts on the environment (Tukker et al., 2006). Environmental impacts could be reduced using sustainable diets, such as the vegetarian or the vegan diets (Baroni et al., 2006). In Sweden, in addition to these two diets, the New Nordic Diet and the Nordic Nutritional Recommendation are diets for Nordic countries that can be considered as sustainable (Saxe et al., 2012). Sustainable diets are seldom adopted by the Swedish population, even if they could considerably reduce negative impacts on the environment (Stehfest et al., 2009; Marlow et al., 2009). Depending on diets composition and type of products eaten, each diet might not reduce to the same degree environmental impacts compared to the others. The research will try to answer the question: How much environmental impacts can be reduced by different sustainable diets in Sweden?
