Sunburn joins hand with United

Sunburn, Asia"s biggest electronic dance music festival, is joining hands with United, a social awareness foundation, to inculcate a sense of environmental responsibility in the minds of the youth through its "Leave No Trace" campaign. Through the simple & smart principles of "recycle, reuse and restore", Sunburn is furthering United"s cause of spreading awareness on an eco- friendly lifestyle with the entire Sunburn community.

A step towards being more environmentally responsible, "Leave no Trace" reaches out to the free-spirited youthful fans of Sunburn to make it one of the most eco- friendly festivals in Asia. Along with recycling garbage cans for plastic, glass and other items spread across Candolim Beach, the alcohol glasses at Sunburn will have captions like "Trash Me" and "I Deserve a Bin". Volunteers along with Sunburn enthusiasts will have the opportunity to clean the venue during and after the event, to restore the beach to its original beauty.

The Sunburn crowd will also be paying their respects to the "Leave no Trace" campaign as the entire lighting of the Sunburn event will be switched off for five minutes, with the crowds waving neon sticks to pledge their support for energy conversation. There will be an innovatively created tree structure at the Sunburn venue, where people can interactively participate in the campaign, leaving messages and tips on how to make "Leave no Trace" part of your daily lives. Also, the famous flea markets at Sunburn will also be part of the campaign with the "Leave no Trace Library", where people can donate and borrow books, thus promoting reusing of paper.

Commenting on the "Leave no Trace" campaign, Mr. Shailendra Singh, Joint Managing Director, Percept Limited said, "We are very proud to partner with United for the "Leave no Trace" campaign. Through Sunburn, we are able to reach out the future generation of the youth, and make them aware of the importance of environmental sustainability. This is a very crucial goal, and we are honored to use Sunburn as a platform for the youth to make a positive change in the world."

Sunburn's "Leave no Trace" campaign along with United is all about inculcating these simple principles of "recycle, reuse and restore" into our daily lifestyles and respect the environment as it is our own backyard. This is Sunburn"s attempts to channelize the energy of the youth that the festival thrives on & to bring them together to create a better planet.
