Recycling here is years behind Canada. Better in the city but it frustrates me when I see people putting the wrong things in the recycling bins. <br /><br />I've just returned from Glastonbury Festival, claimed it was the "greenest" festival. It wasn't. There were still tons of plastic bottles everywhere, although festival mostly used paper plates and wooden cutleries. There were just garbage everywhere. People don't even have the decency to go to the bin and dispose, even when they do, they dispose into the wrong recycling bins. The cleaning crew must have a heck of a job! <br /><br />Having said that in "Green Fields" and "Greenpeace" areas were very clean. At certain areas they have the cigarette buds disposal in huge cans filled with water, i hope they'll use that as pesticide. <br /><br />I think the greenest festival I've been was Hillside Festival in Guelph, Ontario. Mind you, Canadians are very clean to begin with compare to the Brits. Anyway, you have to buy or bring your own mug for the beer at Hillside. They don't provide cups otherwise. That alone eliminates all the paper cup waste and forces you to bring your own.Stylishly yourshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15549369709040539158noreply@blogger.com
