What happens to my food waste? Each year, we have around 4.5 million tonnes of food is thrown away by households in the UK and most of the food is still good-to-eat when it is discarded. The amount of edible food waste is good enough to even create an extra 10.5 billion meals! If we could reduce our own household food waste, it does not only save you money but also help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Shorts Group Ltd is one of the leaders in Waste Management in the South, our vision is to create a more environmental and sustainable future by consistently pushing Reduce, Re-Use and Recycle. Each month we collect food waste from over 100 sites including Pubs, Restaurants, Cafes, Hotels, Schools and Film Studios. 48
