Edmonton folk festival goes greener

by David Allen on Thursday, August 9th, 2007

Traditionally folk festivals are regarded as being green, but this weekend at the Edmonton Folk Festival, the organisers intend to be going even greener and they have really great ways of doing this.

The first thing is the introduction of solar panels, these are to be set up around the main retail tent area, which will be enough to power those all important cash registers and other electrical items, this idea to produce as much solar power possible.

Also if there is one thing that all festivals have an abundance of, that is empty beer cups that just linger around for days, these are now going to be eco friendly, because they are made from cornstarch, which will decompose in only a matter of months.
