In the years since the pandemic, the live music industry has been growing. Аs audiences and artists travel across the world to gather at giant venues and festival sites, sometimes for days at a time, their emissions skyrocket. And while some performers have been under fire for their private jet habits, others are proving that spectacle and sustainability aren’t mutually exclusive.
