Explanation:
Buying canned food is a great option if you want to make simple, nutritious and tasty meals, but did you know that they are also a great environmental choice? One of the best ways to protect the environment is to reduce waste, save energy and preserve the planet’s natural resources.
- All metal cans can be recycled again and again and again… they are 100% recyclable, so you don’t need to worry if you have different types of cans in your recycling bin.
- Recycled cans can be used to make more cans or other metal goods like fridges or cars.
- If your local council doesn’t kerb collect your recycled cans, you will find can banks at all local council sites and in many supermarket car parks.
- Canned food’s long shelf life means you only need cook what you want when you want which reduces food waste.
- Recycling metal cans means less packaging ending up in landfill sites.
- Canned foods are already cooked in the can so you only need to heat them up – this saves both time and energy.
- Canned foods have a long shelf life so can be used straight from the shelf with no need for chilling or freezing which saves more energy – and more money.
- Recycling cans saves energy otherwise used to source virgin materials like iron ore and coke to make more steel cans – it also reduces CO2 emissions. Every steel can recycled, saves twice its own weight in CO2.
