Breastfeeding is the healthiest form of nutrition for the baby and is recommended to use exclusive breastfeeding (EB) until 6 months. The environmental footprint of artificial lactation (AL) has been studied, but that of EB is unknown. Objectives: The main objective of the first phase of the study is to identify the environmental impact in terms of the carbon footprint of breastfeeding and artificial breastfeeding, taking into account the accessories necessary for breastfeeding and of the diet and the factors associated with the diet of postpartum women in first month of life of the babies. The main objective of the second phase is to evaluate the impact of a standardized intervention of educational programme on sustainable breastfeeding, diet and environment protection, providing inputs obtained from the first phase on the carbon footprint in the first month of life of the child and the prevalence of breastfeeding at the first month of the baby's life.
