Takeaway retailers to switch to compostable packaging

About

Carrotmob Hobart is a campaign to collectively support local food retailers who switch away from plastic takeaway packaging to compostable options – we’re using the ‘carrot’ not the stick. We believe in the *power* of people to bring about *positive* change and right now we are calling on that power to help us tackle plastic packaging.

We’re on a mission to encourage takeaway food businesses in Hobart to switch to more sustainable takeaway packaging and utensil options… and we need you! We want your help to reward businesses that agree to switch. It’ll be easy, all you need to do is buy your morning coffee, or lunch, or snack or sweet treat at food outlets in Hobart that agree to switch. Keep an eye on our Carrotmob page and visit us at the Sustainable Living Festival to find out which retailers you need to *mob* in appreciation. In the meantime, remember to support businesses that are already fabulous like Bury Me Standing and Frankies. Photo: Alesha from Bury Me Standing.
