Cut down food waste

Globally, food waste is responsible for about 8–10% of total greenhouse gas emissions. According to WRAP, in the UK, we waste 15-20% of all food we buy, with 40% of this being because it was not eaten in time.

Using the stuff we buy means respecting where food has come from and the nutrition it brings. Take this action and don’t throw away the food you bought, which otherwise could be eaten!
