Food
Buy organic foodHelp
Did you know: Organic and other forms of low-input farming that use minimal or no pesticides and fertilisers - which are energy intensive in their manufacture - consume up to 40% less energy, and support higher levels of wildlife on farms. Organic and other more holistic farming approaches tend to prioritise animal welfare more than conventional methods. Buying more organic food can reduce your food footprint by around 15%.
