Green Music Week: Festivals

Whether you’re grooving at an outdoor concert or listening to tunes on your iPod, our tips that week will help you express your environmentalism through music.

Tip #3: Go to Green Concerts

We used to feel lucky whether a concert venue offered recycling bins, but festivals today are raising the bar even higher. For example, the Project 30-90 music festival will be powering its stages with solar and wind energy when

it rocks New Orleans on September 5. Find out if your favorite music festival scores green points by checking out A Greener Festival’s list of 2008 winners or ask organizers to nominate an ecofriendly festival for the 2009 awards. Get the lowdown on notable festivals such as Rothbury, Bonnaroo, and the High Sierra Music Festival here.
