As December approaches, the most wasteful month of the year, Guardians of Grub | WRAP are urging hospitality and event leaders to take a closer look at food waste. Each year, the hospitality and food service sector disposes of 1.1 million tonnes of food, 75% of which could have been consumed. This avoidable waste costs businesses and organisations an astonishing £3.2 billion annually. We are proud to be long-standing supporters of Guardians of Grub, championing measurable food waste prevention actions. As part of our ECOsmart certification process, we encourage hotels and venues to take advantage of the organisation’s training course, which focuses on reducing costs and minimising food waste.

Andrew recently visited the 'greenest city in the world', Stockholm to find out how it was awarded such a title. Here's some of the key stats he learned on his trip: 🚌 Public transportation (all run on renewable energy) accounts for 80% of all trips taken in the city, significantly reducing traffic congestion and emissions. ♻ Over 70% of the city’s energy needs is derived from renewable sources to reach target of being fossil fuel free by 2049. 🌳 Stockholm has a goal of having a park or green space within 300 meters of every resident. This provides residents with opportunities to connect with nature and boost wellbeing.
