A Mile HIgh Music Festival recently held in Colorado was billed as being green, but was anything but green. Drinks were sold in recyclable plastic cups, but those who attended the event simply threw them to the ground without recycling them. Those working the recycling centers at the event were reduced to just picking up garbage. Attendees were asked to donate $7.50 each to offset their carbon footprint, with the proceeds going to a windmill that is not currently operational.
