For that reason volunteers are essential to help manage waste and keep festival spaces clean and usable. But estimates show up to eighty per cent of festival waste comes from campsites and can include abandoned tents, marquees and couches. This has led to some festival-goers tackling the problem of campsite waste in creative ways.<\/p>\n<p>After a decade working in the fast fashion industry, Melbourne based designer Rachel Kelly started to notice the same mindset of disposability she saw in the fashion industry creeping into the festival space. &#8220;I think a lot of Australians, when they think someone&#8217;s abandoned a tent, think &#8216;They must be sick in the head&#8217; \u2014 because why would you do that?&#8221; Ms Kelly said. &#8220;But it&#8217;s the same behaviour as buying a nice dress for the weekend that you know you&#8217;re never going to wear again \u2026 you&#8217;re just not wearing a tent on your body.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ms Kelly launched E t\u016b E t\u016b, which gives abandoned camping gear collected from Aussie music festivals a new life as fashionable bags. The project also runs sustainability workshops for students. Ms Kelly is calling on the Australian government to follow the example set by France, where regulations targeting fast fashion have been passed in the lower house.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.abc.net.au\/news\/2024-03-25\/young-music-lovers-cleaning-the-aussie-festival-scene\/103613930\">ABC<\/a><\/p>\n<p><p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/3-497\/\">The young Australians waging war on waste at music festivals<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[616,575,13923,445],"class_list":["post-129234","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-australia","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-music-festival","tag-waste"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129234","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129234"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129234\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129234"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129234"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129234"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
