UK adults spend an average of 8 hours 41 minutes a day on screens, which is more time than they are asleep! Take this as your reminder to spend some time off screens during this festive period ππ
Festive Facts: During the festive season, an estimated 30% more waste is created in the UK (EA). 50,000 trees are cut down every year to be used for festive wrapping paper (DEFRA). One billion Christmas cards are thrown away every year, the equivalent of 33 million trees.
An estimated 7 million Christmas trees end up in landfill each year in the UK. Thatβs similar to the amount of CO2 emitted from 30,000 return flights from London to Australia.
We just learnt that the UN Population Fund estimates around 10 billion latex condoms are produced each year and most are disposed of in landfills. How can we keep sex safe whilst making it less impactful on the planet?
