Goumbook at Coldplay Abu Dhabi: Raising awareness

Goumbook partnered with Global Citizen at Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres Tour in Abu Dhabi. Highlighting our Eat It or Save It – Beyond Food Waste campaign. The goal was simple. Raise awareness about food waste. Inspire real change and showcase achievable solutions.

Why Food Waste Matters

Food waste is not just about leftovers. It has social, environmental, and economic consequences. When food is wasted, resources are wasted too. Water, energy, labour, and transport are all lost.

Food waste also contributes to climate change. Decomposing food produces methane gas.Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas. At the same time, millions struggle with food insecurity. This makes food waste a global contradiction.

Through Eat It or Save It, Goumbook works to change mindsets. We focus on awareness, behaviour change, and practical solutions. Learn more about our Eat It or Save It initiative on our website. You can also explore our community work and CSR programmes across the UAE.
