Always bugged me that folk couldn't just pick up after themselves.
littering should be a felony
I Do Monologues mate I wouldn’t be able to say my own name let alone pick up the pint I just dropped.
Literally. It takes like 1 second to drop trash in the bins. Maybe like 10-20 minutes to find a bin? But in the meanwhile you can just hold onto it in your bag :\
I thought these types of festivals where frequented by people that really care about environmental issues. Shouldn’t be a need to clean up after them.
Steve Allen What people say and what they do for convenience are often at odds with one another.
The waste goes into trucks that magically disappear.
:'v
To Asia
My boyfriend thinks the Laundry basket does the same thing
They should introduce a recycling deposit like at shambala festival - you're charged £10 extra and given a recycling bag and at the end if you fill your bag and take it to the recycling bins you get your ten quid back. It actually turns into a pretty fun game running around trying to beat everyone else to finding the recycling and stealthily stealing everyone elses too!
Shambala is such a great little fest, its lile glasto's baby sister its great
I think this should be tried next year
@@petegray5363 absolutely I would say Kick them up the arse with hobnail boots but it's illegal and yest they get back £10 if they do pick up their litter the only probably is They're so middle class and bourgeois Money is problem!
£10 is way too little to influence trash people, they leave most of their belongings like tents, vellies and backpacks behind on purpose. The considerable amount must be at least £100.
Glastonbury could learn a lot from Burning Man. pack out what you pack in - no exceptions.
From what I've seen of Burning Man, based on their forum and videos, that'd be impossible at Glastonbury. It looks to be far too regimental in it's organisation, with their MOOP maps and all. Glstonbury is mainly just people in tents; few "camps" like Burning Man. High proportion of young first-timers... basically just very different.
@@joepublic3933 People need to be responsible for themselves, instead of asking other to do it for them. At £280 a ticket surely that donates some kind of responsible person, at least take your tent home, saves you having to create more waste by buying another one.
Charge a big deposit on each campsite. If it's clean on exit, you get it back.
I’d be pretty annoyed if I had a big party in my garden and everyone just left their rubbish everywhere.
The best "sustainability" idea is EV charging stations that are brought in... powered by diesel generators.
Lol that's genius
6:15 she was about to say ,"you don't really need to bring anything with you to Glastonbury except a big sturdy credit card and lots of cash" ...lol
They really need to get out and fact find @Woodford Folk Festival.
Great job
I praise the Authorities in the good work they do.
Good job team. 😎👏
Working for a waste disposal company a awful lot of used tents and plastics get sent to Asia around this time of year.
When I read the title I thought the PEOPLE themselves were the waste.
Not too far off the truth I suppose.
Why say that? Let young people be young, for f**ks sake!
said colin paterson bbc breakfast live and did not use the usual "you are live on tv, please do not swear"...glasto girls said"well we met last night"..."what have u learned?, "she's a p*sshead"..and it's not even 7am!
Very good
Started the festival when I was born far out and peace
well done !!!
Unfortunately, one of the problems of today's society is the amount of cheap but bad quality material that's sold. The camping chairs are a good example: I bet most people buy them, sit down in them twice (or maybe even once!) and the damned thing breaks. Same with the tents; there's nothing like the good old real canvas tents that you'd keep for a lifetime.... nowadays those quechua tents that nobody knows how to fold up are just strewn around everywhere after festivals. So yeah, there's education to be done, but not just on what you bring and leave, but on what you buy in the first place. All this stuff is so cheap and disposable that people couldn't be bothered to pack it up at the end.
The positive thing though is that most of these people are young and part of the festival experience is a learning process. So even if you don't notice a rapid change in behaviour, it's normal, because every year brings huge number of first-timers, who will gradually learn better behaviour in the festival environment, and take that knowledge home with them.
What if, you want to come back next year, you'd have to go after your previous visit to help with the clean-up?
I love this, really makes me think about what I use daily.
Is there a ' what to bring ' tutorial video for Glastonbury ...would be great
using a named example, to what extent are festivals sustainable?
Glastonbury is a festival with over 135,000 people attending yearly. The festival site itself covers over 1,100 acres of land with the outer fence covering 8 miles.
Glastonbury is in the south west of England in the county of sommerset. The actual festival site is to the south of a village called Pilton near the A361.
In 2017 Glastonbury Festival recycled over 60 tonnes of paper and card, 32 tonnes of glass, 45 tonnes of cans, 40 tonnes of plastic bottles and turned 4,500 litres of cooking oil into biofuel. The evidence above shows that Glastonbury has made lots and lots of waste, but has not failed to recycle it.
It's the people that go not clearing up after themselves that's the problem though, not the event itself or how it manages waste from the stalls and venues.
What a let down I though I was going to see poo get recycled
j'adore votre vidéo! elle est très inspirante et devrait faire prendre conscience au monde entier que l'écologie est un sujet essentiel qui ne devrait pas passer au second plan.
Très bon travail!
Too much chaos 4 me.😱
I got me a chair coverd in mud it seen me thru a further 2 festivals till it was time to get rid of it
Save Our Planet.
ayy turns out, 2020 is the fallow year!
The ticket should come with a tent deposit. If you take your tent out, you get your deposit back. Money talks.
couldn't really police 200'000 people leaving
Womadelaide's efforts are worth investigating as well.
People are the earths number 1 problem. 🗑
And you are one of them... to make it better why don’t you just pop a cap inside your head
Billy Rock must suck to have such a low opinion about yourself
People also CAN be earths numb 1 solution.
Well the good news is in a million years everything will have been recycled all we got to do is sit back eat some popcorn and let time fix the problem by itself.
Glastonbury is a beautiful and mystical place...the festival however has been a joke for many years.its been completely taken over by the mainstream and watered down to the point where its barely holding on to its roots. I havnt been in over 10 years and would never go again. Thankfully there are still some amazing tiny festivals across Europe that treasure that grass roots feeling.
kfunkdeluxe yeah it’s such a joke that 200,000 people attended this year...
@@carys7417 hence "taken over by the mainstream".
and millions try for tickets
Humoulos lupalus in bavaria was amazing! Small festival with great experimental bands, great people and Great vibes
You burn it all 'Veolia' by incinerator, turning it into electricity to sell back to the conditioned goon squad that bought & left it all.
What a system - Ingenious !!!
interesting

GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL
Each year the Glastonbury music festival
brings approx 200,000 revelers to the quiet areas of Somerset
the money they spend locally helps so much to keep the area afloat.
People come from all over the world for the attractions and amusements
but what started initially as an alternative venue has sold out to the NWO
and they now even have a designated pervert area in the Festivalfor homosexuals and drug addicts.
One of the main music stages which had been for some years called the John Peel stage
has had to be renamed after he was exposed as a serial sex predator of young chidren
The now disgraced BBC not only knew but covered up Peels behaviour in a similar way to that of Jimmy Saville Paul Gambacinni Allan Freeman Chris Denning and others.
Esther Rantzen who got in as chairwoman at Childline, famous for " losing"
complaints about Greville Janner Leon Brittan and the " amazing James Randi "
was part of the BBCs cover up operation.
and they want us to pay a license fee ? forget that.
They should be made to take things home, and to have an hour or two helping to tidy up.
Great idea ,but how would you enforce this?You can’t.
This is pretty much the British version of Woodstock. 😎
Michael Dundee Ive got a smelly doo doo hole.
Difference is Woodstock isn’t pure middle class twaddle
*Was. It's now an instagram backdrop for middle class idiots who don't know how to let loose
Woodstock without soul.
Well managed 😄
An area of E coli on steroids.
And that's how it's done!!!!
Festivals organisers must controls the crowds and reminds them all to cleaning after themselves and behaving like humans after few alcoholics drinks stop behaving like wild animals !
They could buy back the chairs from u on their way in ?
So it started a year after Woodstock. Interesting
Yep. There's a film of the second festival:
ruclips.net/video/KSnYmI2FYFg/видео.html
We were at Worthy View, hired a ready erected 6 person tent. Maybe providing more tents with chairs and airbeds would cut down on people leaving theirs?
I think Greta personally picks it all up.
They go home I imagine.. oh you meant their rubbish.
No plastic but lots of 5G, COOL!
Why not just stop the festival if you care so much about the landscape? Oh ya, because you want their money, not their virtue. Hypocrisy at its finest.
first off, well on done on an epic glastonbury 2023...well u brought the full with u, so what's wrong with taking the empties back? the same thing happened at the mall after the coronation...fly-tipping (plenty of cameras, shouldn't be hard to spot those costing local councils lots of money) not the wimbledon wombles then...
Best of Britain. Hard to imagine that Brexit thing to go along with it.
So what happens to the rubbish
The people are the waste
I'm the most unhippy person, like, ever but even I understand that when you leave a campsite you leave NOTHING except a patch of flattened grass.
Why is so hard for these eco wokeys to grasp?
Virtue signalling at its best with these lots.
Yeah, every single one of the 200,000 people on site is a committed lefty "eco wokey". Give your head a wobble, you fucking mouth breather.
Us humans are the problem here on earth s m h
FIRST
And you are one of them. Humans CAN be the solution to the problem.
@@BanilyaGorilya i said 'us' humans. genius

One piece of total bullshittery at the festival, they had electric plugin points for 'green' electric cars (sounds ok so far) but these were powered by......a massive diesel generator!!! What a load of green crap.
Idk
It magically turns into a massive pile of cash for the pseudo hippy millionaire organisers 😂
I just pooped
Did it arouse you?
Nope
I thought they didn't allow 8 year olds on RUclips
Can I bring my vibrator
Of course ,as long as its biodegradable zzzzzz
Hippy propaganda. I did not see any waste in this video, well-soaped presentation. Show us real aftermatch and the horrors of a trashed environment. The question stays, what happens to all the Waste?
Leave it to someone else to pick it up that's what they do, while.banging on about climate.
Why should there be professional arse wipers?
No bringing bottled water to a festival? Lol - Hard pass.
Rats are killing us
😂
Ratatouille?
