With warmer weather just around the corner there are sure to be plenty of fun festivals to attend across Canada & the United States this summer. Whether a food, music or family festival – there is always something for everyone. With that in mind, it’s important to remember how we can all be a little more eco-friendly while attending.
These festivals can be a lot of fun to attend whilst still being green. Things we should all keep in mind:
-
When possible, carpool or take transit to the event with family and friends not only does this save on fuel costs but it lowers our carbon foot impression
-
Bring BPA-free reusable water bottles with you, keeps plastic water bottle waste to a minimum while keeping everyone hydrated
-
Recycle when possible into the green bins provided on site
-
Try avoiding purchasing non-compostable catering products
-
Support greening efforts the festival may be promoting such as stalls selling local produce or fair trade goods
-
And, most importantly remember to have FUN!
