Waste Management News!
Our
ambitious but achievable goal is zero landfill.
We ask all visitors to the fair to minimise material brought on site and to
remove their own
waste on departure. It could be a carrier bag full it could be none.
We
will recycle cans, plastic, cardboard and paper. All food waste will be composted.
There will be no rubbish bins for general waste except for disposable
nappies and sanitary
waste.
We will have a free cloth nappy service on site. (please bring your own
wraps)
Why not do a waste audit before you leave home.
Minimising your waste can be sexy!
In 2007 we didnt quite manage zero waste but 35 binbags of landfill for 4000
people was getting close. We recyled 290kgs of mixed glass, 16 bags
of plastic bottles, 110kgs of mixed cans, 2 bales of cardboard and the
food waste compost is cooking sweetly.
