@outsidelands is taking their greening to the next level by promoting #BYOBottle, providing fans with water refill stations and expanding a reusable cup program to reduce plastic pollution. @steelysdrinkware designed custom carabiner cups for #OutsideLands, as well as stemless wine cups and reusable bottles. @eventwatersolutions is hosting the water stations for easy refills.

Amazing to see so many #BYOBottle partners involved w/ @theohanafest Storytellers including @Countercurrent_art, @ThePlasticPick_up and the @RobMachadoFoundation. We love this creative way to weave environmental stories into a music festival & inspire solutions to plastic pollution! Repost / / @theohanafest We are excited to announce that we have @reecepacheco and the @wslpure panel. Reece is the Executive Director of WSL PURE and will be moderating a discussion with @ethan.estess.art.science, Director of Countercurrent and @alex___weber, Founder of The Plastic Pickup. The WSL and WSL PURE are committed to #stoptrashingwaves. To highlight one of the not-so-obvious ways in which our ocean is being trashed, WSL PURE is proud to partner with @ThePlasticPick_up and @Countercurrent_art to bring to life an art installation, fan activation and critical discussion around plastic pollution; the depth of the problem and potential solutions. Visit www.worldsurfleague.com/pure and join the crew at WSL to make a pledge that protects our ocean. Ohana is also a proud partner of the @BYOBottle Campaign, a music industry effort to reduce plastic waste by promoting reusable water bottles and water refill stations at music events.

Thanks @blushhmusic_ for joining as a #BYOBottle artist and for making the commitment to reduce single-use plastic on tour! - - - - Repost // @blushhmusic_ Blushh is stoked to be a part of the #BYOBottle campaign, a music industry initiative aiming to reduce the use of plastic bottles in the field. Yall know i’m trying to use less plastic generally in life, but when we’re on tour, life looks different. We dont have recycling bins or compost sites on hand, so it’s all about the small changes we can make to lower our impact on the planet as we travel through cities. Taking a vow here to do our best to refill our bottles wherever we can and avoid disposable plastics when we can. To learn more go to byobottle.org🌿 TOUR IN 5 DAYS AH!
Thanks @benxgordon for rocking your reusable bottle on stage and for making the #BYOBottle commitment to reduce single-use plastic! 🙌 - - - - Repost // @benxgordon Since being home I’ve decided not only to cut out plastic bottles but ALL single use plastic. It’s quite difficult at first and takes some willpower to not buy the things you want if they are in plastic packaging, but it gets easier and is very rewarding. You just need to put in a little effort. 📷 @carsten_dannert #refuseplastic #plasticfree
