Now we are running the final sprint before some nice Christmas and New Year's holiday. We want to thank you for a fantastic 2019 and look forward to a new exciting year. 2019 ended with a move to new premises where we are now settling in, we are constantly growing and now we have the opportunity to expand even a little more. With that feeling and with the same energy that constantly drives us forward, we will step into 2020.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, we take this opportunity to share some climate-smart tips on New Year's resolutions for 2020.
New Year's Resolution 2020 #1 - The return of the food box!
Sure, it's ok to splurge on a restaurant visit at lunch sometimes, but next year we really see it as a luxury. It's time for the lunchbox to get its due! Start competitions in the office to get colleagues on board - the most creative box of the week, the best leftover food of the week, the luxury box of the day, etc...
The food box is a great way to manage leftovers and reduce waste, and it's also much kinder to your wallet.
New Year's resolution 2020 #2 - Walk more!
We've heard it before, but we'll say it again! Leave your car at home and use public transport, or even better - walk or cycle. This promise is hard to keep, we know. Time and convenience are important and the car is undeniably a great tool for that. BUT, come on! Let's try this promise again this year... Help each other get better. Push your colleagues towards a more environmentally friendly alternative. If you live near each other, maybe you can take a walk together to work? We'll try, ok?
New Year's Resolution 2020 #3 - Best-before-snooza and wash up!
At the beginning of 2019, the Swedish Food Agency published a fantastic new word list in "svinnerska". Here we find very useful words to bring into the climate-smart conversation. Our favorite words that also ended up on the promise list are vaskvägra and bäst-före-snooza.
#washweed
[vassk-way:rah]
Not throwing away food that is still perfectly good to eat.
#best-before-snooza
['best-before-snoozah']
Extending the shelf life by looking, smelling and tasting your way around.
