Now the sun is out and you're travelling to beaches, family members or going camping remember not to throw litter out of your car or you could be fined £150. Instead keep it until you find a recycling bin or take it home and put it in the recycling bin there. 🌞 🚗 🗑️

Estimates indicate that approximately 7,500 miles of wrapping paper are used during Easter. Keep the scrunch test in mind: if the paper retains its scrunched shape, place it in your recycling bin. Otherwise, put it in the general waste bin. #SustainableEaster

Did you know that 8 million hot cross buns are wasted in the UK? If you can't finish an entire packet, you can typically freeze them. Alternatively, if they become a bit stale, use them for a delicious bread and butter pudding. #SustainableEaster
