Fly the flag for Ireland! Now more than ever we need to buy Irish. If you’re buying online go to an Irish operator rather than one of the big ones. Getting a meal delivered?Collect if you can so that extra 35% stays with the restaurateur. Stay positive, support Irish 💚🤍🧡💚🤍🧡

🌎 I love this: Disposable plates, made out of leaves. No more #plastic! #innovation #tech #SDGs #zeroplastic #waste #sustainability #plasticpollution #oceans #food

Leaves plates

A German company is producing disposable plates entirely made out of leaves as an alternative to plastic packaging. One plate, on average, costs around 50 cents and is 100% biodegradable.

Hey @GordonRamsay. It’s your old mate Hugh here. Apparently they are giving these away at @HeathrowAirport right now. Surely that’s the wrong direction of travel. You know they have over 100 water fountains there now? #WarOnPlastic #refill

For parents who have done theur homework on #Climate the only sensible response in the face of #schoolstrike4climate is to join them. "I am not fighting for our future, I am fighting for everyone's future." @GretaThunberg

RT if you agree: @McVities, given that Jaffa Cakes are 52% sugar, shouldn't it have a big red traffic light on the front?🚦#BritainsFatFight

@HughsWaronWaste @HughFW Seems @McVities prefers to not use the coloured version of the traffic light guide instead it's all a blueish colour

The headlines are “much more fruit, veg & wholefoods, much less meat” - I certainly wouldn’t argue with that but how easy would you find it to make the suggested changes? And how far are you prepared to go, for e.g. reducing meat & eggs? 🥕🍎🥗🥦🍳 bbc.co.uk/news/health-468652…

The #PioppiDiet retains number 1 best seller spot 3rd week in a row in Holland. More hope that combining the latest lifestyle science coupled with patient preference & policy change across the population WILL reverse #obesity & associated diseases! @shekharkapur @ProfTimNoakes

Delighted that the #PioppiDiet hits number 1 best seller spot in Holland this week. A sign that more myth busting to better health is getting a great platform including : Type 2 diabetes is carbohydrate intolerance disease Don’t fear cholesterol, instead make it your friend

How Iceland is taking care of its teens: in the past month, the number of drunk teens dropped by 90%, and, perhaps more impressively, the hours teens spent with their parents doubled.
