"Britain's colossal food waste is stoking climate change

Britons must swap their wasteful habits with food for the thrifty
approach of previous generations by buying less and eating leftovers
if the UK is to play its part in averting climate change, shoppers
were warned yesterday.

And not having their food flown in, Doug...

I'll stop doing it if you do, assuming that we can both tell from the
label. Oh yes and you should give up shopping by car.

And delivery by lorry/ship and plane. Otherwise its all just
greenwash.

It's quite funny really because I've proven all my food comes from
within 60 miles so it's done less food mileage regardless of mode of
transport than his.

He seems to forget berating me for it, claiming I must be lying because
we couldn't survive living on native foods.

How could I forget the lengthy debate where Doug pointed out that
everyone who lived before 1950 must have died each winter due to lack
of vit C.

that was quite an enlightening post; I recall Steve F finding some
interesting info on citrus fruit not being the great source of vit C
its made out to be.
