For the past four years Green.TV has been sending a team down to the Glastonbury festival to film short stories about the numerous ‘green’ activities that go on during the festival’s 5 days. (You can watch these at – http://www.green.tv/glastonbury)

Festivals have always struck me as a great place to raise awareness and possibly change people’s attitudes. Certainly, Glastonbury’s organiser, Michael Eavis, has used the festival to support numerous worthy causes and over the past few years these have included two of Green.TV’s partners, Greenpeace (http://www.green.tv/greenpeace) and Oxfam (http://www.green.tv/oxfam).
