How Eco-friendly?
- Used Klean Kanteen to hold ice-cold margarita (mmm!)
- Picked up pieces of litter as we crossed paths (and I could've picked up much more)
- Used a cloth napkin and real silverware
- Rode our bikes to and from Festival every day
- Didn't litter, and used recycling bins
- Packed necessities to avoid having to purchase more
- Used the same (ratty) schedule all weekend instead of picking up fresh copies
- Didn't bother using electricity to fix my hair, letting it go natural instead (only way to go, really)
- Make a recycled hat from an empty case of beer
- Figure out a way to avoid styrofoam plates and bowls from food vendors
- And decline all plastic utensils
- Use the Kanteen for all drinks, not just some
- Pick up more litter and recycle it (it's such a compulsion!)
- Volunteer for recycling team again
