A Research Study On Hebridean Celtic Festival ( Hcf ) And Cambridge Folk Festival

A large amount of primary and secondary sources are used during this investigation. Surveys were created and distributed to households to determine how much people wasted within their household per week. Analysing the national food waste assessment to find how much is wasted in Australia annually. Conducting an interview in order to determine how much waste is generated through supermarkets and a solution is formulated in order to reduce this.

While items such as paper, glass, metal cans, plastic and clothes can all be recycled. However the start up costs of recycling. A good example of an Urban area which has a high rate of waste management is Curitiba which recycles 70% of its waste. In the late 1980’s it was the first city to offer a wide variety of recycling services. Curitiba recycles 2/3 of its household waste this figure is one of the highest in the world. The recycling plants are made up of recycled material and employ people who find it hard to get jobs for example immigrants and disabled people, this makes the employees feel valued and it helps to improve the lives.

Festivals for years have been leading the outdoor events industry by force. With the music scene always changing and now modern day music being dominated by technology, the same goes for how the festival trying to brand them self’s around using technology. This Research assignment will look at the history of Glastonbury from 1970 until the early 2000’s taking into account some recent developments from the last few years. From Michael Eavis inspirational thinking to David Bowie’s early days and how social media now front Glastonbury’s branding.

Transportation of waste to landfills, processing waste through garbage disposals, composting, and animal feed are the primary methods of food waste disposal in the United States. Although these methods have their benefits, they also have limitations and some negative effects on our environment. As the world population continues to grow, it will likely cause more pressure on waste management. Managing this waste is a constant concern to food service establishments. The cost to travel to the landfill is steadily increasing since 2008 because of the increase in food waste. With the disposal of waste, we have to consider the labor, storage facilities, supplies like bags, equipment rental, haul charges, and food safety. For instance, food waste processed by a garbage disposal requires the use of water and energy. Composting requires the use of vehicles, farm equipment, land, and labor. These are all costly endeavors that affect the environment but must be done in order to process the massive amount of food waste that is produced in the US.

The Innisfail festival will be beneficial for the Innisfail because it is a little town and it is not known for anything positive except cyclones so what better way to make Innisfail a destination to look forward to is by holding a festival that will show off our local produce, natural beauty and hospitality. The festival will run for two weeks. Many different activities will take place such as marches, cooking demonstrations, competitions a gala dinner and lots more. The events will mostly be held on the esplanade as it is overlooking the riverfront. The main reason to hold a festival is to boost local economy. Festivals attract visitors, and visitors spend money, which boosts the local economy both on and off the festival site. But off-site

People in developing countries may not be aware of the consequences of waste disposal in their area, as they only consider whether they can get food to survive. Environmental protection is a luxury for them. This may cause deep-rooted and irreversible effects to the countries. Developed cities should help developing countries, but not to increase their burden and exploit their rights.

Glastonbury Festival has beconne a worldwide attraction for music fans and artists alike. In 2009, Bruce Springsteen was added to the long list of acts (from Paul McCartney to Oasis) that have appeared at the festival. It started in 1970 when 1,500 hippy revellers gathered on a farm near Glastonbury Tor to be plied with free milk and entertainment from a makeshift stage. Now, Glastonbury is a major international festival that attracts over 150,000 attenders. Without any knowledge of the lineup, the tickets for the 2010 Festival sold out in days. In those early days, the Festival was developed by local farmer, Michael Eavis, whose

With such huge demand for their talents, artists can have a lucrative summer moving between festivals. Similarly, audiences can make lengthy treks to their favourite festivals. For some, this has caused environmental concerns with Glastonbury's rural location, poor transport links and large audience being cited as a specific problem. On the other hand, artists are not only finding that the festivals offer a good source of income but that prívate parties and corporate entertainment have emerged as alternative, often greater, income opportunities. One newspaper claimed that George Michael pocketed more than £1.5m (~€1.65m; ~$2.25m] to entertain revellers at the British billionaire retailer Sir Philip Green's 55th birthday party in the Maldives. Henee, for many artists, the summer has become a case of 'cherry picking' their favourite festivals or seeking out the most lucrative opportunities. Over time, the shift from small, homespun event to corporate-controlled festival has provided awkward situations for Michael Eavis - from the difficulties with establishment figures who felt the event was out of control to the demands of counter-cultural groups such as the travelling hippies. However, along the way, the festival has maintained its aim of supporting charities like CND and, later, Greenpeace, Oxfam and a number of local charities. In the mind of the

In this chapter we will discuss and analize about the Social & cultural impacts of Glastonbury festival. As we know, The Glastonbury festival is a largest open-air music and performing arts in the world so it has considerable influence to people about social and cultural.

Kalaga, W. (2011). A culture of recycling / recycling culture? Frankfurt am Main: Peter Lang.

The average resident produces seven and a half pounds of garbage every day that is buried down in landfills and litters lands costing a great amount of money. Nowadays, people face no more critical trouble than the need to save the weakening environment, mainly in urban areas, where solid wastes are uselessly dumped. It has been observed that cities have no controlled structure for garbage disposal. Each year, millions of dollars are spent picking up litter and more is thrown away in valuable materials that could be recycled. As humanity develops new technology and equipment, the level of waste increases every day. Due to the fact that there is a huge problem with garbage disposal, government representatives must contribute to resolving

We, humans, are producing waste every day, polluting and destroying our planet. To save the world, many people believe recycling is the obvious solution. It is the process of converting certain waste into a reusable material. Therefore, the recycle motto is “Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle”. However, have you ever wondered why the word recycle is placed at the end? Well, it’s because it is not the only way to reduce waste and save the world from global warming. Recycling may have many advantages, but its disadvantages’ list is not a short one either. Recycling may look very simple and easy method, but when there is a need for a new unit of waste recycling, it takes up a lot of space. Not to mention the amount of money the building costs along with paying the staffs, buying new utility vehicles, upgrading the recycling unit and different types of chemical disposals. It is not only expensive but also, unhygienic, unsafe and unsightly with piles of waste materials on every location. These wastes spread infectious diseases putting human health at risk. Aside from recycling

Events are diverse in nature and can range from concerts, festivals, conferences, product launches, sporting spectacles, corporate hospitality and incentive programmes. They promote interchange of knowledge and lead to growth in trade development, tourism and creative enterprise. The events industry worldwide and in the UK is growing at a rapid pace. It is extremely important for event organizers to acknowledge and recognize the impact of the events industry on the UK economy. According to the industry reports from recent years, it has been observed that music events form a significant part of the UK events industry. Research suggests that 41% tourists claim that their visits to the UK have been related to music.

Recycling is an essential part of reducing the amount of waste filling up landfills. Recycling materials cannot only reduce waste but pollution as well. Unfortunately the typical recycling programs such as curbside pick-up and recycling centers require significant commitment from the public to be successful which generally leads to low participation. However there may be a solution to the problem. The pollution prevention and reduction program suggests the use of materials recovery facilities. Materials recovery facilities sort out recyclable materials from other waste products such as compostable items. By sorting out the waste at one central location more items get recycled and waste is reduced without public participation. A recent article by Wang (2010) suggests, “The installation of materials recovery facilities (MRFs) can be an alternative solution to the problem of low participation of voluntary household and curbside recycling in fast-growing cities.” Materials recovery facilities can be a viable solution for waste management problems where public participation is an obstacle. This solution also provides less societal impact because lifestyle change is not as critical.

looking for causes, how listeners make their decisions to attend and how they critique or respond to performances. Secondly, their approach is correlational that to seek qualitative insight on the experiences of the EJBF audiences. Lastly, they focus on attendances’ perceptions and observe behavior by participating in the events and gaining first hand experiences. Broadly speaking, the authors conduct qualitative research although there are still small amounts of quantitative data of showing ages of respondents and previous festival attendance.
