Big is better
It is estimated that we will use an extra 750 million bottles and glass containers, and 500 million drinks cans in the UK over Christmas. Make sure you recycle yours, and buy drinks in large containers, rather than in a lot of small ones. One large bottle results in less waste than a lot of small cans and is more economical. Alternatively, buy drinks in concentrate form to dilute.
Go local
Avoid the crazy crush of the high street and buy your gifts from local designers and craft centres.
