Reducing waste at Eat Cambridge 2019
In 2019 the festival asked its traders and its audience to reduce the waste generated at its events. For a food festival this is a non-trivial commitment: tasting events in particular run on single-use serving materials, and the alternatives cost traders money and time.
The campaign sat alongside a wider movement in Cambridge around sustainable food, which had its own organisations in the city and shared several people with the festival.
A record of one campaign, run by the festival on itself in 2019.
