” “The plastic cutlery contained in the pilgrim’s bag can be used more than once. For waste disposal, people are encouraged to use skips for paper, glass and non-recyclable waste, depending on the type of garbage. As to food, to avoid waste people are recommended to share their leftovers with others. It is important to take the garbage, such as cigarette butts and bottle caps, to the skips in Marienfeld so that they will not have to be laboriously collected after the event. If people wish to buy food, in addition to the pilgrim’s ‘package’, they are advised to buy eco-friendly products from fair trade. For further information on eco-issues during the WYD, visit www.wjt2005.de. During the event, recommendations on an eco-friendly lifestyle will be shown on large screens.
