00:00:00.680 --> 00:00:02.920
Music too can have an environmental impact.

2
00:00:03.600 --> 00:00:06.040
No, we’re not talking about
smoke machines used at concerts!

3
00:00:06.800 --> 00:00:08.480
Those are used to create an atmosphere!

4
00:00:09.240 --> 00:00:11.800
So what is the music world doing
to be more sustainable?

5
00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:15.240
There are companies that help
live music venues and festivals

6
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:19.160
eliminate plastic waste, install solar panels on roofs

7
00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:20.880
and use energy more efficiently.

8
00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:24.560
Many bands are already making their concerts sustainable:

9
00:00:24.560 --> 00:00:27.280
travelling overland without producing polluting emissions

10
00:00:27.520 --> 00:00:28.960
by using renewable solar,

11
00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:30.600
kinetic and wind power;

12
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:35.560
planting a tree for each ticket sold;

13
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:39.040
banning the use of single-use plastic at concerts;

14
00:00:40.120 --> 00:00:43.120
powering stages with 100% renewable power

15
00:00:43.880 --> 00:00:47.280
and using certified initiatives
to compensate carbon emissions!

16
00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:49.960
There are solutions that respect the environment

17
00:00:51.040 --> 00:00:52.800
even if you are going out dancing!

18
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:56.600
In fact, there are discos with kinetic dance floors.

19
00:00:57.280 --> 00:00:58.480
What does that mean?

20
00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:01.480
It literally means that the energy produced

21
00:01:01.480 --> 00:01:03.640
by moving your feet on the dance floor

22
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:05.600
is used to create electricity.

23
00:01:05.960 --> 00:01:09.560
At some venues it is even possible
to generate electricity

24
00:01:09.560 --> 00:01:11.320
by pedaling an exercise bike!

25
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:14.160
Whether soft rock or heavy metal,

26
00:01:14.160 --> 00:01:16.640
whether listening live, dancing or playing:

27
00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:19.120
remember that music can be green too!
