"Tesco's recent attempt to present itself as a force for environmental good appears to be backfiring, as evidence emerges that Britain's biggest retailer has severely underestimated its true contribution to climate change.  Christian Aid believes that the true impact Tesco has on the environment could be as much as 12 times higher than the level the supermarket admits to."
