Transport and the full footprint
A claim and its limits.
In this November 2023 excerpt, logistics entrepreneur Ryan Petersen argues that shipping Fiji Water by sea can emit less carbon than trucking water from the Rocky Mountains to the US West Coast. He offers no lifecycle data or calculation in this short clip.
Petersen emphasizes the efficiency of moving freight by ship. Ocean freight is not carbon neutral: its emissions depend on the vessel, fuel, distance, load and other factors.
The title’s claim that this is the world’s most environmentally friendly water bottle is not established by the comparison. A full assessment would also consider bottling, packaging, other transport legs, waste and the alternative being compared.
