Description

What is the WWF Basket?
The ambition is "To halve the environmental impact of UK Baskets by 2030". Signatory retailers are asked to sign up to this overall ambition.
The target areas and actions are articulated at a corporate level, though some do reference specific high impact supply chains.
Where ambitious industry initiatives exist, the WWF Basket aligns measures and actions to these.

The Food Foundation.

- The Consultant to work collaboratively with WWF to consider long term strategies for presenting data in the What's in Store for our Planet reports.
- To be able to present individual WWF's Retailers' Commitment for Nature Signatory retailer progress reports on previous year's performance, subject to legal boundaries.
