this is how the ravers contribute to the big amounts of pollution the humankind creates on the earth. this is the basic contents of a rave garbage bag:

- flyers
first, flyers are made out of cardboard. they could be recycled.
second, ravers don't have to accept a flyer if they don't want it. flyers mainly inform us of a party, and most of the ravers go on that wonderful rave.ca website, so therefore they don't need to have a flyer.
third, there is no use to bring more flyers than ravers to a party.

- glowsticks (edited)
sure they are really cool, but they are also disposable pieces of crap. there are two solutions to this problem. solution one is pretty simple: you can buy the light toys, and rechargable batteries. not only you'll save money on the long run, but these toys also flash and make all kinds of effects that glowsticks don't. solution two is to break the glowsticks after you use them and empty the liquid, and put them to the recycling bin instead of the garbage.

- plastic bottles and aluminum cans
they are recyclable too. raves should be equipped with garbage cans as well as recycling cans, one besides each other, so when the raver goes about throwing their things in the garbage, they are given the choice. emphasis on the recycling, too, is a good thing. it goes really well with the PLUR philosophy, respect for the environment.

this is very important. we are the generation that is supposed to be intelligent about those things. there is many reasons why we rave, and one of them is to 'escape' from the world, but it doesn't mean acting like irresponsible and careless either.

seriously if we all make that effort we could reduce the raver pollution by at least 75%. and probably even more.

thank you for reading, and thank you even more for acting.
