Newsroom Special - Sustainability out the window this Christmas?

5 minutes | Friday, 21 December 2018

New research reveals the gap between how environmentally friendly and sustainable Brits want to be and what they actually achieve is widened throughout the Christmas period, resulting in a ‘Festive Free Pass’ mentality when it comes to recycling.

Over four in ten (42%) Brits say they find it ‘challenging’ to be as environmentally conscious as they’d like to be across the festive season. Nearly half of those quizzed by the Percol Coffee survey said it was a case of having ‘greater amounts of waste to deal with’ throughout December and beyond.

Sustainability Expert and MD of Percol David Brooks joined us on the line to discuss the research and to offer some advice on what we can do to be more environmentally friendly over Christmas.
