Self Sustainability
In 2004, Boom started to develop a series of projects in order to become environmentally self-sustainable. These include the development of toilets that don't use chemical products, the treatment of residual waters using biotechnology, utilization of wind and solar energy, recycling and the free supply of cleaning kits to participants (including pocket ashtrays and rubbish bags).
In 2011, it won, for the second time in a row, the title of YOUROPE Green 'N' Clean Festival Of The Year in the Festival Awards Europe which caused the UN to invite the organizing team to use the popularity of music as a means for raising public environmental awareness in a program called United Nations Music & Environmental Initiative (M&E).
