How Much Food Are UK Households Wasting? [INFOGRAPHIC]
Consumer attitudes to their own
environmental impact are changing, and across the UK, people are becoming more
aware of the choices they make and how this affects climate change. Whilst
single-use plastic has continued to dominate the headlines, the impact on food
wastage is rarely discussed.
We’ve put together some headline
statistics to show how food wastage across the UK is costing consumers money
and having a significant impact on the environment. Throwing food in the bin
isn’t the end of the impact, it’s all the climate footprint of growing,
packaging, and transporting this food in the first place.
Consumer attitudes are changing, but
there’s more to reducing your carbon footprint than cutting down on single-use
plastics. With everyone involved, a little goes a long way, so when you’re out
shopping, ask yourself, am I actually going to eat this?
