84 tons of horse manure collected during the recently concluded Gothenburg Horse Show in Scandinavium will now be used to heat the arena, reports P4 Gothenburg.

The collected manure from the 240 horses that were on site in Scandinavium will be enough to heat the arena for just over four days, according to project manager Erika Olsson.

The reuse of the manure is part of the organizers’ ambition to reduce the event’s climate footprint.
