Tesco is removing plastic wrapping from its multipack tins in an effort to cut down on waste. The supermarket giant says it will remove 350 tonnes of plastic a year from the environment. Britain's biggest supermarket is working with the likes of Heinz and Green Giant to replace plastic-wrapped multipacks with multi-buy deals. Tesco said the move was the first of its kind by a major UK retailer. And environmental group Greenpeace welcomed the decision to get rid of what it called "pointless plastic". The changes start on 2 March when Tesco will stop ordering more plastic-wrapped multipacks.
