UK supermarket Tesco and wildlife NGO WWF have set up a four-year partnership to work on reducing the environmental impacts of food. They aim to halve the environmental impact of the average UK shopping basket, according to a metric that they will develop.

The partnership will work in three key areas:

  1. Helping customers eat more sustainable diets,
  2. Restoring nature in food production, and
  3. Eliminating food and packaging waste from the sector.
