That stinky trash bag on the drive home from the playa? That's the "Wayback Funk™." Term courtesy of Scotto. Why do I have trash in my car? Because EVERY CAMPER needs to take 2 full bags of trash back with them, and dump RESPONSIBLY.

Dealing with Burning Man trash is a shared responsibility. Each camper takes two bags of trash off-playa and dispose of responsibly.
