FOOD

Do you shop locally? Ask your restaurant/pub where their food is sourced - suggest they buy from local producers.

Have you tried to east more fresh produce and less convenience food?

Request that your local supermarket stocks locally-produced food.

Have you thought about growing your own vegetables?

Drink tap water. In the UK tap water is safe - huge costs are incurred in producing, transporting and disposing of bottles.

Food transport accounts for 25 per cent of the HGV miles on our roads. The use of HGVs to transport food doubled from 1974 to 2002.
