    Re: Could Rai, Lee and Agent help combat global warming?

    I've read about this club and really want to check it out sometime

    You get free entry if you have used a green transport system so wear bicycle clips OVER your jeans/pants and your guaranteed FREE entry.

    Anyway, what we really need are re-useable glowsticks as I shudder what damage these do to the environment as they get used for 4 hours and then thrown into the bin and end up in landfill.

    I say put them on boucy castles and get kids to generate electricity for free!

    Why can I just see the club floor being a bouncy castle using this system?

    what we really need are re-useable glowsticks as I shudder what damage these do to the environment as they get used for 4 hours and then thrown into the bin and end up in landfill.

    ...of course, then there's the question of what to do with the used batteries...
