What's on Environment and Sustainability 

Wednesday 14 December

Celebrate the holidays without the waste
Festive table decorations Tim Douglas

Gathering with friends and family over the holidays? Challenge yourself to reduce or limit your waste.

  • Give waste-free gifts: homemade vouchers or bought experiences make great gifts.
  • Food in bellies, not bins! Reinvigorate, share or donate leftovers to minimise festive food waste.
  • Make wrapping part of the gift: wrapping gifts in fabric is a great way to reduce waste. Try a gorgeous scarf, cute tea towel or pillowcase.
  • Give nature a gift: a native plant benefits the receiver and nature.
  • Dress the table: buy second hand crockery rather than disposables to give your table an extra bit of waste-free joy.
  • Re-love the perfect party outfit: expand your wardrobe without breaking the bank by buying second hand or renting
