The cost of waging total war imposed severe strains on Britain's
limited economic resources, leading to appeals for public co-operation in
financing the effort. This resulted not only in posters stressing the need
for increased savings but also in campaigns against waste and unnecessary
consumption, for the recycling of scarce materials, and for boosting
food production from gardens and allotments.
