Climate change: Coldplay will no longer tour until shows are environmentally sustainable, Chris Martin says - CBS News

Coldplay will not go on a world tour to promote its latest album, citing environmental concerns. The British band said it won't tour again until the shows can be done in a sustainable way.


"We would be disappointed if it's not carbon neutral," frontman Chris Martin told BBC News Thursday. He said the band wants to figure out how a tour can be not only sustainable, but actually beneficial to the environment.

Traditionally, concerts have large carbon footprints and produce a massive amount of plastic waste. The travel of both fans and performers, lighting and merchandise all have negative environmental impacts.

LOL why not get Greta Thundberg as their roadie so she can charter some sailboats for them? :lol:
 
More power to 'em! I think it's great that they are ready to give up tour money the rest of their lives over something this stupid - I wish I could afford to be that dumb
 
clever way to announce a band breakup
 
Let's hope they never figure a way to do this then.
 
I don't want to root for global warming, but if it gets rid of Coldplay then I guess the polar bears can **** off.
