What can YOU do?


  • Use up your leftovers. 
Instead of scraping leftovers into the bin, why not use them for tomorrow's ingredients



  • Responsible consumption in buffets:
Do not take more food than required, this would result in lesser food wastage. Obtain the correct portion size.
Simple tricks of using smaller serving utensils or plates can encourage smaller portions, reducing the amount left on plates.


  • Plan ahead. 
A shopping list will reduce the risk of impulse buys or buying unnecessary quantities, particularly since stores typically use holiday sales to entice buyers into spending more.
                                             
  •  Donate excess: 
Food banks and shelters gladly welcome donations of canned and dried foods, 

  • Sharing is caring:

Sharing dishes with friends or family or incentives for asking waiters to serve smaller portions. We not only save extra dollars, but more importantly we help preserve the earth’s dwindling resources in our own little way.
