The [[carbon footprint]] of a kilogram of cheese ranges from 6 to 12 kg of [[CO2eq|CO<sub>2</sub>eq]], depending on the amount of milk used; thus it is generally lower than beef or lamb but higher than other foods.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Carbon footprint of meat, egg, cheese and plant-based protein sources |url=https://wwwwwfse.cdn.triggerfish.cloud/uploads/2021/11/carbon-footprint-of-meat-egg-cheese-and-plant-based-protein-sources_slu.pdf |page=24 |access-date=July 18, 2022 |archive-date=July 18, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220718131226/https://wwwwwfse.cdn.triggerfish.cloud/uploads/2021/11/carbon-footprint-of-meat-egg-cheese-and-plant-based-protein-sources_slu.pdf |url-status=live }}</ref>
