Environmentally friendly festivals

Summer of Love's spirit blossoming in green movement | Reuters/Billboard, 6/16/07: "Willie Nelson's biodiesel company (we predict) will influence virtually every tour to travel green within five years.

MusicMatters introduced 'carbon offsetting,' planting trees and supporting alternative sustainable energy sources equal to your sins of emission.

The Vans Warped tour is using solar-powered sound. Bonnaroo, Coachella and Lollapalooza give prizes for recycling. The Hove Festival in Norway has pledged 100 percent carbon neutrality. The Wakarusa Festival will include a sustainability symposium. And on it goes."
