Every year 90,000 tonnes
of fruit and vegetables are flown to British supermarkets.
45,000 tonnes of flowers are imported annually.
Every year this involves 16,000 flights, with a single
journey from East Africa to the UK releasing 190,000
kilos of harmful CO2 emissions.
Consumers demand fresh produce but our planet is paying
the price. As our carbon footprint grows the ozone layer
is disappearing and the climate is changing.
Imagine a world where we enjoy the
same food but with the cost to the environment reduced
to a tiny fraction. Smart Packaging can do this. Right
now.
Last year 80% of the brussel sprouts
sold in Britain came in by sea wrapped in Smart packaging.
CO2 emissions were reduced
by 96%. One small vegetable, a massive reduction in
harm.
Imagine the contribution Smart
Packaging will make to slow down global warming.
