Food waste costs money and harms the planet.

That's why one of our Cut Your Carbon 2026 challenges is planning a week's meals to ensure nothing goes to waste. It's a quick and simple action that saves food, saves money, and cuts carbon.

Better still, like all nine Cut Your Carbon challenges, it's easy for young people and their families to take part in and make a genuine difference.

Ready to take on the challenge? Register today: https://cutyourcarbon.eco-schools.org.uk/

In 2025, more than 1,000 schools and nurseries took part, delivering an incredible 170,000 carbon-cutting actions. Together, these efforts potentially prevented over 500,000 kg CO₂e from entering the atmosphere, equivalent to the emissions produced by driving a family petrol car 2.8 million miles!
