The initiative gives British householders eight steps to follow which will help them on their way to having an environmentally-friendly kitchen.Among the advice on offer is recycling kitchen waste, buying energy-efficient kitchen gadgets and creating a kitchen garden.Also recommended is composting, buying green products such as organic food and ensuring that appliances such as kettles, toasters and cookers are switched off.
