Bluesfest Going Green

Given the subject of my previous post, I want to point out an initiative that's doing good things for our planet. Bluesfest has decided to go green this year and I'm liking it. Two things have really impressed me:
  • the use of compostable beer cups made from corn, that are disposed of in tube-shaped contraptions called cupsuckers hooked onto regular trash cans, and
  • the use of Biodiesel to run the festival's on-site generators.
That's a lot of beer cups, and a lot of generated power! Kudos to them.

Oh I am so happy you posted about this! I had read about the biodegradeable cups (made out of corn, no less), but I wasn't aware of the bio-diesel generators!

That is *so* cool. I suspect I'll enjoy the fest that much more.

Thanks for sharing. : )
