SUSTAINABILITY IN THE BREWING INDUSTRY

That this House welcomes the publication of `Brewing Green, our commitment towards a sustainable future for Britain's beer' by the British Beer and Pub Association; congratulates the industry for its achievements in reducing energy and water use and the targets it has set for further reductions by 2020; further welcomes new commitments from the industry on recycling and packaging reduction; and recognises the environmental benefits of its unique system of beer supply via kegs and casks to pubs, which displaces the use of millions of bottles and cans every day.
