Five of the UK’s biggest supermarkets have agreed to join forces to speed up their work on tackling climate change with suppliers in the next year.
The pledge comes as WWF announced its goal of halving the environmental impact of food shopping by 2030 as it warned there was an “urgent need for accelerated action” from the sector and greater support from the UK Government, especially in areas such as agricultural supply chains and including removing deforestation from food production.
