Take steps to prepare for climate change
What we eat
Climate change is already impacting food supplies in the UK and overseas. This is because rising temperatures and intense periods of rain can disrupt and ruin crop yields as well as supply chains.
This is why it’s really important that we’re careful about the food we buy and make sure that we waste as little as possible.
You can help by:
- Check your cupboards and plan your meals before you head to the shop. This will help you save money and help to reduce food waste.
- Visit the Love Food Hate Waste and Eat Like a Londoner websites. Both are full of hints, tips and easy ways to help you make smarter food buying choices and reduce the amount of food that goes to waste.
- If you have a garden or a window box, visit the RHS website for a wealth of information to help you get started growing in the space you have available.
You can also visit the National Trust website to find out about seasonal growing and eating.
