Footprint of TV program production

Jamie Oliver is arguably the UK’s leading TV chef and a campaigner for fresh, local and healthy food. Jamie Oliver and the team from Fresh One Productions travelled to six locations across the USA for the TV series 'Jamie’s American Roadtrip' which was broadcast in the UK in September 2009 and repeated in 2010. Jamie Oliver Ltd commissioned this study to obtain an estimate of the carbon footprint associated with travel and accommodation related to pre-filming visits and actual shooting of the program at six individual locations in the USA.
