Many years ago I was mountain biking up on the moors and came across an abandoned tent, partlally broken, containing a soaked sleeping bag, a mat and some food debris and litter. I was quite worried as I thought it looked as if somebody had been camping and something bad had happened to them. Oh how naive I was - I now know that it's common practice to buy a made in China tent, air bed and sleeping bag kit from ASDA or Tesco, use it for a couple of nights then dump it for somebody else to clear up. I passed the site of a festival near Stavely and was absolutely shocked at the field of abandoned gear that a handful of volunteers was clearing up. This is absolutely disgusting and supermarkets should be made to stop feeding people's filthy habits in this way.
