Twestival Home

With great Twestivals comes great Twesponsibilities (does that work), so as the drinks flow and bands rock Oxford Twestival, why not take a moment to take those empty bottles and make sure you #tweetrecycle?
As creating bottles and jars from recycled glass uses less energy than creating glass from raw materials, here at www.frieendsofglass.co.uk we’ve been trying to encourage the great folk of Twitter to recycle their glass bottles, and share that fact with the #tweetrecycle tag, to promote recycling within the wider community.
We’ve already reached our goal of targeting 76,500 bottles between us to power the streetlights of London for 5 minutes – but we want to continue! The steps are below, and #tweetrecycle wristbands will be free and available on Sunday. So do pick one up, remind the barstaff to recycle any bottles used and share your numbers on Twitter with the #tweetrecycle tag.
1.    Go to www.twitter.com and set up a Twitter account if you haven’t already
2.    Count up the number of glass items you’ve put out for recycling
3.    Include them in your tweet and mark it #tweetrecycle
4.    Don’t forget to encourage your friends to take part too!
