The Scottish Government and ACR+ member Zero Waste Scotland have unveiled ambitious plans to help reduce Scotland’s food waste by one third by 2025 - that’s 297,000 tonnes of food waste a year - with the new Food Waste Reduction Action Plan. The Plan highlights the need for a collaborative effort across all sectors to tackle food waste and sets out actions to deliver on Scotland’s target.
 
The Scottish Government’s new campaign, ‘Food Gone Bad’, showcases easy steps people can take to reduce their food waste and recycle unavoidable food waste.
 
A website, greenerscotland.org, has also been created to give tips on reducing and recycling food waste.
