🎶 Lastnight I saw Coldplay in Sydney part of their Music of the Spheres World Tour— This was my third time seeing them perform live and wow, they just keep getting better. Their shows are always an experience, but this one felt next level. What stood out most (besides the incredible music and production quality) was how much Coldplay is putting into making a positive impact to our world. It’s not just talk—they’re walking the walk when it comes to sustainability, and every ticket goes toward their commitment to the planet. Some highlights that blew me away: 🌍They’ve cut 59% of their CO2 emissions since their last tour, using things like battery-powered stages, solar energy, and even floors powered by the audience's movement! 🌳They’ve planted 7 million trees across 24 countries. That’s a real, lasting contribution. 💡Those glowing wristbands? They’re 86% reused, so they aren’t piling up as waste. ♻️72% of their tour waste is recycled or composted. And on top of all that, Coldplay just has this digital focus and crowd involvement that make it impossible not to feel a part of something bigger. Chris Martin must have thanked us at least half a dozen times for being there, and you could tell he meant it.

A Concert with Conscience: Lessons from Coldplay's Sustainability Journey Last week, I had an incredible opportunity to attend the Coldplay concert—a band that doesn’t just make music but also inspires action. What stood out to me (beyond their electrifying performance) was their unwavering commitment to sustainability. Coldplay has been actively rethinking the way live music tours operate, incorporating renewable energy (i.e., Utilizing renewable energy to power their shows), reducing emissions, and engaging fans to be part of the solution.Their efforts remind us that innovation and sustainability can go hand-in-hand. As I watched them seamlessly integrate purpose with passion, I couldn’t help but reflect on my own journey in building the ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) practice within my law firm ANB Legal. The legal counsels play a unique role in helping business enterprises align with their sustainable practices and comply with evolving ESG frameworks. It’s about guiding organizations to think long-term, innovate responsibly, and act ethically. Coldplay's vision resonates deeply with what we aim to do in our ESG practice - help organizations strike that delicate balance between purpose and performance. Whether it’s crafting sustainability-linked contracts, navigating climate regulations, or fostering corporate accountability, we are committed to assisting our clients make meaningful progress toward a better tomorrow. If Coldplay can reimagine concerts, surely, we can reimagine business practices. Here’s to learning from the unexpected and finding inspiration in every experience. #ESG #ColdPlay #sustainablesolutions

🌍 Coldplay’s Sustainability Journey: An Inspiring Emissions Update 🌱 As we continue to navigate the climate crisis, it’s inspiring to see how global leaders in the music industry are stepping up to the challenge. Coldplay has just released an update on their sustainability efforts, and the progress is truly commendable. Since embarking on their Music of the Spheres World Tour, Coldplay has managed to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions by a remarkable 47% compared to their last tour in 2016-17. This significant achievement is a testament to their commitment to environmental responsibility, aiming for a 50% reduction in emissions. The band has also made strides in clean energy and carbon removal. By integrating renewable energy solutions into their concerts, including solar installations and kinetic floors, they’ve ensured that their performances are as green as possible. Furthermore, Coldplay has been investing in nature-based solutions to remove more carbon dioxide than the tour produces, setting a new standard in the entertainment industry. This is not just about a single band making a change—it’s a call to action for all industries to consider their environmental impact. Coldplay’s journey highlights that with innovation and dedication, we can make a substantial difference. Kudos to Coldplay for not just talking the talk, but walking the walk. Let’s take this as inspiration to push for more sustainable practices in our own fields. #Sustainability #ClimateAction #Coldplay #RenewableEnergy #CarbonReduction #EnvironmentalResponsibility #MusicIndustry https://lnkd.in/eQMWX6qj

🌍🎶 **Coldplay’s "Music of the Spheres" Tour: A Commitment to Sustainability** I’m truly inspired by Coldplay’s dedication to making their *Music of the Spheres* tour as sustainable as possible. Some of the key initiatives they’ve implemented include: - **100% Renewable Energy**: Shows are powered by solar, wind, and a custom-built battery system developed with BMW, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. - **50% Carbon Emission Reduction**: Compared to their previous tours, through optimized transportation and sustainable production practices. - **Fan-Powered Energy**: Kinetic floors and power bikes at shows allow fans to help generate energy by dancing or cycling. - **Tree Planting**: One tree is planted for every ticket sold, contributing to global reforestation. - **Plastic-Free Venues**: They’ve eliminated single-use plastics, opting for greener alternatives. Coldplay is setting a powerful example in the entertainment industry—proving that sustainability and innovation can go hand in hand. #Sustainability #Coldplay #MusicOfTheSpheres #RenewableEnergy #GreenTouring #ClimateAction

Without downplaying the good causes that Coldplay seem to be funding, a few things seem like problems here: - The metrics provided on their site are packed with carefully worded caveats, and most tend to be relative or proportionate rather than absolute - No raw data, full methodology or any other type of disclosure is provided For example: "Over 3,000 tCO2e saved by purchasing Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) for flights" -> relative to what? Which fuels? Where were they sourced? "17kWh average power per show generated via in-venue solar installations, kinetic dance floors and power bikes - enough to power the band’s C-stage performance each night" --> Honestly, cool! But there really isn't any reason to leave out the baselines here: how much power does a Coldplay concert require? On what grids? Are they helping to integrate and incentivise clean power in other ways? I don't want to trash these efforts but truly, the careful lack of disclosure makes it very hard to strongly support them, and impossible to contextualise them. https://lnkd.in/gJeZzmzS
