Rheinkultur is one of the leading festivals in Europe in terms of sustainability and environmental protection. The festival offers a myriad of alternative green solutions including sustainability, waste, and environmental management, recycling, renewable energy, a glass free site, mobile toilets with no chemical additives, a 'Green Card' scheme for public transport, using local suppliers or local products, and more.

Visitors to the festival are asked to be equally green, with waste avoidance, environmentally-friendly directions and respectful handling of the site, plus asking festival goers to leave food at home and only purchase it on site.
