  • Ditching Disposables to stop takeaways costing the Earth  

    Our guests    

    • Alvaro Bernabeu, owner of Malvarosa, Portobello, Edinburgh.  
    • Catherine Bozec, communications partner, Zero Waste Scotland 
    • Maja Darlington, plastic campaigner, Greenpeace UK 

    In this episode, we hear how Scottish takeaways and their customers are wasting less and spending less as they go beyond the latest ban on throwaway plastic to help save the planet and their pocket. 

    Alvaro Bernabeu tells us why he’s always charged a deposit for his paella pans. Now he’s saving cash as well as carbon by trialling deposits for other reusable tubs and cups at his restaurant in Edinburgh’s Portobello under Zero Waste Scotland’s Ditching Disposables scheme to help businesses nationwide make the best change for them and the planet. 

    Zero Waste Scotland’s communications partner Catherine Bozec explains the ban in more detail, and why we should all ditch all disposables and choose to reuse everything wherever possible, from cups to clothes and computers. 

    Greenpeace UK plastic campaigner Maja Darlington tells us all about the Big Plastic Count revealing how much we waste at home to help persuade governments and big businesses take more action.
