Instead of
Plastic cutlery Reusable cutlery
Why switch
Healthier
No flimsy plastic leaching into hot, oily takeaway food.
Greener
Single-use cutlery is banned across the EU — used once, then littered for centuries.
The impact
You, per year 100 plastic pieces
All of the world 810 billion plastic pieces skipped / year
If everyone across the world switched, every year that’s:
- 810 billion plastic pieces
Reduce, reuse, recycle
Reduce
Carry a small set; say “no cutlery” when you order in.
Reuse
Wash it and pop it back in your bag for next time.
Recycle
Bamboo composts; a metal set lasts a lifetime.
