Going Green

We aim to achieve a 50% reduction in festival-related annual GHG emissions by 2025. As a participating festival, we will put measures in place to achieve this, such as:

- Reducing waste where possible and aiming for 50% (or more) recycling rates by 2025.

- Reducing reliance on fossil fuels where possible and aiming to reduce annual diesel consumption by 50% (or more) by 2025.

- Working with audiences, suppliers and artists to positively influence travel choices and reduce travel-related emissions.

- Working with the supply chain to improve accountability and the sustainability of food sourcing.

- Working together as an industry to share experiences (positive and negative) about changes we make, sharing best practice and working toward industry standards where appropriate.

- Measuring key impacts using credible methods in order to measure progress.

- Sharing information to enable (anonymous) annual reporting for the industry e.g. working with Powerful Thinking and other closely affiliated organisations such as Julie’s Bicycle and A Greener Festival.
