QUESTION NO. 8

QUESTION: Councillor F. Timmons

"To ask would the Chief Excecutive look at Libaries running Stop Food Waste workshops in schools and in selected local venues in order to create public awareness?"

REPLY:

The Environmental Awareness Office runs a number of Stop Food Waste Initiatives throughout the year. Over the last 18 months these initiatives have been delivered online and via social media. 

The Climate Change and Environmental Awareness Officer is available to deliver food waste talks to any group. 

We also manage the Green Schools Programme which is Ireland's leading environmental management and education programme for schools. As part of the programme workshops, talks and events on a range of issues, including Food Waste, are delivered directly to schools.
