SUSTAINABILITY
–
Sustainability is one of Pride Winnipeg’s five foundational values. We want to ensure that future generations can celebrate Pride, and that starts with reducing our environmental impact today.
SUSTAINABILITY DURING PRIDE SEASON
Transportation
Pride brings a lot of traffic to The Forks. The Forks is less than a 40-minute bike ride from most parts of the city, and you’ll get the best parking spots for free.
Composting
In 2017, we composted beverage cups at The Forks for the first time. We are now expanding the composting program to the whole festival site so that food scraps can be composted—meat, dairy, and bones included. You will also be able to compost all cups, cutlery, containers, napkins, and straws from our concessionaires.
Recycling
We’ve been recycling for years, but sometimes it’s the little things that make all the difference. Starting in 2017, we placed recycling bins next to every garbage bin, making recycling an effortless choice. Along with an experienced enviro, this simple change helped us increase the recyclables we collected. We’ll be using the same system this year, but with the addition of a compost option.
No More Bottled Water
In 2017 we cut our use of bottled water in half. Since 2018, none of our concessionaires have been selling bottled water. Bring a bottle to fill up at the Forks’ Shoal Lake Refill Station, or you can visit the info tent for a compostable cup if you’re in a pinch.
