A Week Without Waste
Healthy Lunches, Zero Waste
A challenge to see how close you can get to having a waste free
week full of healthy lunches! Throughout the week participants
will aim to only buy and use things that can be reused, recycled or
composted, and have a nutritionally balanced, healthy lunch each
day.
The Challenge…
To challenge the way you eat and dispose of rubbish, healthy
bodies, healthy planet!
Why?
To raise awareness of how unhealthy foods can be overpackaged
and do neither our bodies, or the planet any good.
When?
Monday 22nd to 28th February 2010.
Who?
All Redbridge residents, Councillors and staff
who want to join in.
How?
You must register to take part. You will
then be sent an information pack full of guidance, hints and tips
and a record sheet, so that you are ready for the challenge.
Healthy Lunches, Zero Waste: Monday
