Many of us are keen recyclers both in the home and at work, however, we are often guilty of wasting food. The government waste organisation WRAP have highlighted food waste as a priority area for action working with both suppliers and consumers to help improve current food waste figures.
The WRAP campaign Love Food Hate Waste provides some really useful tips, recipes and information about the importance of cutting your food waste. You can discover what to do with your leftovers, learn how best to store food and even complete a 7 day food diary to see where your waste goes.
- Every year the UK throws away 8.3 million tonnes of food. If this could be prevented the CO2 impact would be equivalent to taking 1 in 4 cars off the road!
- You could also save a huge amount of money as the average household is currently wasting £650 of food every year
