Useful shopping tips

  • when you go shopping be aware of the way the products you choose are packaged.  Refuse those items that have unnecessary layers of wrapping. Consumer pressure is an effective lobby for changing manufacturers' behaviour

  • don't take a fresh carrier bag every time you go shopping.  A bag for life can be re-used at no cost to the environment

  • remember that up to 30 percent of food bought is not eaten before it goes off.  Do you consume everything that you buy?
