GMIT AND LOCAL AUTHORITIES HOST FREE PUBLIC EVENT ON HOW TO REDUCE FOOD WASTE IN THE HOME

SPARE A THOUGHT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT DURING WASTE PREVENTION WEEK 17 - 25 NOVEMBER 2012

Managing your day to day environmental performance means putting systems in place that will allow you identify areas where excess waste is produced, or where excess energy or water is consumed, in the course of your daily activities. You can have a very positive impact on the environment - and potentially save money - by examining the type of waste that ends up in your bins and the amount of energy and water you consume.
