Please help us to make Wild & Scenic Green!

• Ride your bike, carpool or take public transportation to Wild & Scenic. CHECK OUT http://wseff.erideshare.com (password: filmfest) to find or share a ride. There is also a BIG bulletin board at HQ. Please be sure to post your name and cell number if you are willing to give a ride to someone, or if you need a ride.
• Bring your own REUSABLE COFFEE MUG to our event. Use your own coffee mug at concessions, and get a discount on coffee.
• Create a festival bag (or backpack). In your reusable bag, put a cloth napkin and your OWN REUSABLE SERVINGWARE. Although we have compostable utensils at Wild & Scenic, using your own utensils is far more sustainable.
• Bring your own REUSABLE BAGS for shopping at Film Sales and at HQ for T-shirts. Then go watch the great film, Bag It, on Saturday or Sunday. Be on the lookout for ChicoBag’s Bag Monster!
• Use the recycling and composting bins at the event. Let’s get as close to ZERO WASTE as possible. Think before you throw - there are signs that will help you to separate your recyclables and compostables.
• Are you buying a Weekend Pass? Bring your own REUSABLE LANYARD.
• Look for the special recycling boxes in each venue - please be sure to RECYCLE YOUR PASS HOLDERS AND PROGRAMS before you leave the festival.
• Do you have an ELECTRIC CAR? There is an electric car charging station at the back of the Miners Foundry.
• Don’t forget to bring your OWN REUSABLE WATER BOTTLE. No bottled water is sold at the festival. There are water fountains or taps at each venue. Plus, there are 2 water filters at the Miners Foundry, a generous donation from CoolerSmart. (And if you’re still not convinced about the impacts of bottled water, check out the great film, Tapped, playing Saturday & Sunday.)
• If you need to BUY A REUSABLE BAG, MUG, OR WATER BOTTLE, check out: NC T-shirt Shop, Contrast, Scotchbroom, JJ Jacksons, Yabobo, Gray Goose, Xtasia, Being Green, or Laloo!
• And lastly - how about buying some CARBON OFFSETS to cover your trip to the festival? Go to www.nativeenergy.com, www.terrapass.com, or www.carbonfund.org.

Thank you to the following for their help in the Greening of Wild & Scenic!

Nevada County Recycles has helped to provide the infrastructure for dealing with the event's waste, recycling, and compostables. The Friendship Club created the beautiful signs pointing out what is recyclable and compostable. And Chico Bag is another great regional sponsor dedicated to the success of Wild & Scenic.
