Do People Behave Better In A Clean Environment? 

This session aims to show whether there are links between crowd management and environmental protection and how they affect each other. Anyone can imagine the relationship between cullets lying all over the ground and cuts in your feet - but there are a lot more examples how a clean site or good welfare provisions can help giving the crowd not only a "green" but also a safe experience.
