Challengers,
A brand new week!
Monday 12th March - The Challenge:
Think about where food comes from - buy local todayA kiwi fruit, flown from New Zealand to Britain, emits five times in weight in greenhouse gases. They have travelled 12,000 miles by air and by road by the time they reach the supermarket shelves. Nearly three-quarters of the UK's apples are imported, and all this contributes to global warming, when apples can be grown right here at home. So, the next time you reach for the fruit bowl, stop and think about where your fruit comes from. Buy local - from a farmshop, or by checking the labels in your supermarket. Or better still, grow your own!
