A Greener London

'KOKO' the legendary music venue in London's, Camden, has won the award for Environmental Excellence in Camden Organisations (EECO) 2010 for Innovation in waste management and recycling.
'Koko' which opened in 2004 was recently praised for 'the continued exceptional effort by staff to achieve a 95% recycling rate in the difficult events and entertainment industry, and for the use of recycled materials within the building in order to close the recycling loop.'
They have installed an active 'Green Policy', and aim for 100% waste recycling.

Most astonishing of all, and what we didn't think we drank, is that in one month they recycle approximately 30,960 glass bottles, 20,088 aluminium cans and 77,166 plastic cups.
