FOOD AND DRINK FEDERATION AND REDUCING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

Motion Text

That this House welcomes the Food and Drink Federation's (FDF) recent one year on update on its Five-fold Environmental Ambition which highlights the ongoing commitment of food and drink manufacturers to reducing the sector's environmental impact; takes particular note of the investment in new environmental technologies and infrastructure to achieve reductions in carbon dioxide emissions, waste to landfill, the amount of packaging reaching households, the amount of water used in factories, and achieving fewer and friendlier food miles; and encourages more companies in the sector to sign up to the FDF's groundbreaking environmental framework.
