Watebusters are go!

Do you know what happens to all the waste from events like gigs and festivals? Well, the chances are it would all end up in landfill – not an ideal situation. But that was before Wastebusters, who co-ordinate teams of environmentally conscious volunteers.

The volunteers help segregate waste for re-cycling - sorting steel and aluminum cans, plastic bottles, cardboard and different coloured glass bottles. But its not all hard graft - the volunteers can often take a break and enjoy the event itself. This picture shows some volunteers at this years Live on the Lawn Van Morrison Concert at Crathes Castle, Banchory.

Wastebusters is a new organisation which up till now has concentrated its efforts in Deeside but may be able to expand into other areas so long as there are willing volunteers who want to support their environmentally friendly cause. Contact VCA to find out more.
