Greenest Drinking Cities in the UK Revealed

With nearly nine in ten Brits (88%) saying they are environmentally conscious, this call to action is simple to act upon, even when dining out this Christmas.

Even though a high percentage of the public say they are environmentally conscious, a new survey commissioned by wine preservation

experts Bermar, found that only 37% of the nation are conscious of making sustainable drink choices. However, some cities and regions are well ahead of

the UK average, with Walsall, being home to the most eco-conscious drinkers in the UK.

The top five most eco-conscious drinking cities are:

1. Walsall 78%

2. Leicester 50% and York 50%

3. Newcastle 48%

4. Coventry 47%

5. London 47%

This is also great news for venues as the survey demonstrates Brits also prefer to spend in venues that are conscious of their carbon footprint. More than four in ten (41%) of the UK public said they would be positively influenced if a drinks menu outlined how a venue is reducing their environmental impact. Over a third (38%) said they would choose a bar that was more environmentally conscious and three in ten (31%) would be inclined to spend more at a “greener” venue
