How to reduce waste and be more sustainable

Sustainable living isn’t just about recycling. There are many things we can do to be more sustainable and to get closer to a circular economy.

Sustainability is a lifestyle that reduces our environmental impact in many ways, from the food we buy to the daily commute. There is no right or wrong way to live sustainably, you simply need to do whatever works for you and remember the small things matter.

Food waste, for example, isn’t just about scraping leftovers into the food waste bin. We need to make choices that support local farmers and cut down on air miles, that reject excessive packaging and wasteful over-purchasing.

Never buy more than you need and get creative with leftovers: you’ll be surprised how little food you waste and how much money you save.

Reuse, avoid, prevent and repair.
