Dax Lovegrove, Head of Business and Industry Relations at WWF said: "WWF has been working with M&S on its practices for designing new stores in the UK. It's clear that M&S is tackling some of the toughest 'eco' challenges facing retailers - reducing green house gas emissions by using different types of fridges and encouraging alternative ways in which customers travel to and from stores, for example."
"The Bournemouth store has its own green travel plan and bike racks are being installed outside to encourage customers and staff to cycle to the store."
Increased space has led to wider customer choice across womenswear, menswear, childrenswear, lingerie, beauty, home and food. An extensive range of 'eco-products' is also available across all departments, from Fairtrade cotton t-shirts and Organic linen shirts, to Fairtrade cotton bed linen and towels and 'eco-cleaning' products.
In addition, a wide range of Fairtrade and Organic food and wine is available in the new and improved food hall, along with fresh Organic fruit and vegetable boxes, which customers can order and collect in-store.
Other highlights include a new and improved M&S Café, serving hot food including toasted sandwiches and ciabattas, as well as a range of hot drinks including Fairtrade tea and coffee.
