  • 6 years ago
The aftermath of the annual Splendour in the Grass music festival in Byron Bay was more than just sore heads; this video shows the destructive impact the festival had on the environment, with piles of plastic waste strewn across the parklands.Theatre group Art for Earthlings performed at Splendour and filmed this video of the waste that was left behind after the festival on Monday, July 23. Garbage was seen everywhere, as well as entire tents and camping chairs.Jennifer Anne of Art for Earthlings told Storyful she and her friends collected discarded belongings to take to local op shops, but they were hardly able to make a dent in the widespread mess.
