Ok, everyone’s yelling at me because I’m the heartless villian out to ruin the environment. But seriously, what the hell did those concerts do (well, they mildly entertained, but in terms of global action)? I mean, are we letting the environment know we care? And how much energy was used, how many plastic waterbottles (may I add, held by many of the performers onstage)? Come on, this whole event was organized by AL GORE. Buddy, get your life in order before you come telling us how to live ours. Plus, didn’t you demonize rock music not too long ago?
What a huge waste. This completely undermined events such as the Conspiracy of Hope Tour for Amnesty International, or Liveaid or Live8, all three of which actually changed something by occuring. To save the environment- turn off your lights, don’t litter, be kind to animals, don’t make a bigger ecological footprint than you have to. It’s that simple.
So- am I being heartless? Or just realistic?
