Coldplay Sets a New Standard in Sustainable Concert Tours
The rock band Coldplay is famous for its concert tours that attract millions of fans.
Since 2022, the group has also worked hard to make these events eco-friendly.
On their latest tour, the group relies less on airplanes to get to show venues.
When they must fly, they take planes that use “green” biofuels.
For the shows, they build stage sets made from natural materials and use custom lights that save energy.
To make the tour more earth-friendly, the band’s venues feature “smart” dance floors.
This special flooring converts the energy of dancing into electric power for the show.
Around the stage, there are also spin bikes for fans to pedal during the concert.
Like the smart floors, these bikes turn human motion into electricity.
In other words, the fans power the show and these efforts work.
Compared to previous tours, Coldplay’s latest tour put 59% less harmful gas into our air.
