Festival season - we all love it. Lots of fun, lots of music, lots of... mess. From plastics, to glass, to tents, less than a third of this waste is recycled, however, over the last few years many festival organisers have been taking steps to minimise their environmental impact. Even @glastofest made a statement this year by banning single-use plastic bottles. But is it enough? What else can we do as consumers?⠀

This episode, we talk to Simon Heppner, one of the people driving the sustainable festival movement. He is a co-founder of ‘Leave Less Mess’ - the UK’s first festival plate deposit return scheme - and @foodmadegood. ⠀

Listen for tips on how to make your festival experience more sustainable this year.
