UK Events & Diesel Use Fact Sheet

"How events are contributing to deadly air pollution and what we can do about it."

With data from A Greener Festival, Julie's Bicycle, Powerful Thinking and over 20 million data points of electronic monitoring analysed by ZAP Concepts, the factsheet is a snapshot of the impact of diesel use for power generation at UK events and how it contributes to a very real climate crisis and public health emergency.

This is a problem that can easily be solved, as reduced diesel use is financially better for the
events and venues and significantly better for the environment. The events industry are working
to understand and reduce their diesel dependence and call upon other industries to do the
same.
