The green evolution
You know it’s important to reduce your food-related carbon footprint, but are you finding it difficult to know where to begin? Everywhere we look there is information on the importance of lowering carbon emissions, but there is very little real and effective support to help us make the necessary changes. We know your time is precious, and so we developed inspirational and engaging resources to guide you towards a low carbon lifestyle
Soon you’ll be making meaningful, impactful changes that will lower your carbon emissions, reduce your personal carbon footprint, and help protect the future of our planet.
What’s more, according to research by WRAP, becoming more sustainable could save you approximately £500 a year!
The need for change is critical, so become part of our collective action to work towards a net-zero future.
“It’s surely our responsibility to do everything within our power to create a planet that provides a home not just for us, but for all life on Earth.”
Sir David Attenborough

Start your journey to reduce your carbon footprint
When you reduce your carbon emissions you will be helping to reduce the devastating impacts of greenhouse gases. There is no future without change.
Reduce Food Waste
Causes extreme weather conditions, redistribution of rainfall and fertile land, destroys homes, farms, livestock and loss of live.
Cut Carbon Emissions
Loss of crops, due to drought or flooding result in lower food production and loss of income. Food insecurity follows with millions of families facing food shortages and starvation.
Reduce Plastic Use
Increases in costs associated with food production due to fuel shortages, crop spoilage and even war are passed on to the consumer. 2.6 million children in the UK face food insecurity every day.
We are proud that our Food Sustainability resources and activities are supported by Clean Growth and The Low Carbon Across the South and East (LoCASE) programmes.
