Festivals, events push back against throwaway culture – Stuff.co.nz

SUPPLIED About 250 tents were left abandoned at Raglan’s Soundsplash Festival in January (file photo). There aren’t many silver-haired nonagenarians who can work a crowd of 200,000 young people into a frenzy. When Sir David Attenborough took to the main stage at this year’s Glastonbury Festival, he received the sort of raucous welcome normally reserved for music royalty. Attenborough praised festival organisers for their anti-plastic campaign, including their stance to ban the sale of single-use plastic water bottles at the event. “That is more than a million bottles of water that have not been drunk by you in plastic,” the 93-year-old declared to loud applause.

9 hilarious and useful Soviet life hacks – Russia Beyond

Image
Some old Soviet wisdom comes in handy in times of scarcity. Building shelves without a single nail, fixing clogged drains with vinegar and using banana peel as shoeshine – has the Soviet science gone too far? 1. Insoles made of newspaper (perfect for rainy days!) Disposable insoles made of a few layers of newspaper are able to preserve the heat inside your shoes. They can also absorb water and sweat. 2. Preserving nail varnish with your breath Storing nail varnish can be improved with science. After you’ve done your nails, breathe into the flask with varnish before closing it. Carbon monoxide will replace the air (the air oxidizes the varnish) and the varnish will be liquid for a longer time. 3. Vacuum cleaning through a racket When you vacuum clean thin fabric curtains, the vacuum cleaner’s tube would stick to the curtains because of the high pressure. This slows down the cleaning considerably. To avoid this, use a tennis racket or any othe...
