The correct answer is… 8,500 tonnes*! 🐣
That’s the same weight as 65 blue whales 🐋 and a lot of roast dinners, chocolate eggs and hot cross buns wasted 💔
And it’s not just food… Easter also creates over 3,000 tonnes of chocolate egg packaging waste, much of it plastic that can’t be recycled. That’s a mountain of wrapping for treats that disappear in seconds 🍫
This year, let’s flip the script: plan better, share more, and keep the good stuff out of the bin 💚
*8,500 tonnes = 8,500,000 kilos
