The kitchen is the heart of the home, but it’s also where a lot of waste happens. From food scraps to plastic packaging, small everyday choices add up. The good news? Simple swaps and smarter habits can make a big difference.
Recipes
Cook with impact! Eating more plant-based meals reduces your carbon footprint. Even small shifts, like cutting down on meat a few days a week, help. When you do buy animal products, look for ethical and sustainable sources.
Reduce Food Waste
Food waste isn’t just bad for your wallet. It’s a huge environmental problem. Plan meals, store food properly, and get creative with leftovers. Compost what you can and learn the difference between “use by” and “best before” dates to avoid tossing perfectly good food.
Choose Sustainable Materials
Ditch single-use plastics and opt for reusable alternatives. Glass containers, beeswax wraps, and silicone lids can replace plastic wrap. Wooden or bamboo utensils last longer and are better for the planet than plastic ones.
Shop Smarter
Buy local and seasonal produce when possible. Choose products with minimal or compostable packaging and bring your own bags and containers. Supporting sustainable brands helps drive change in the industry.
Conserve Energy & Water
Small changes add up. Use a lid when boiling water, switch to energy-efficient appliances, and run the dishwasher only when full. Save water by rinsing veggies in a bowl instead of under a running tap.
