Climate Change Hoax believers criticise Live Earth Concerts
July 6th 2007 01:25
As you would expect pockets of Climate Change Hoax believers are criticising the Live Earth concerts for being hypoctritical and questioning their green credentials.
They beleive that the 8 concerts around the world featuring over 150 Artists will cause more damage than good. Organisers have stressed they are employing every environmentally friendly tactic possible to ensure that the Good of the message far outweighs the damage to the environment caused by the event itself. The concerts will employ a miriad of guidelines to ensure a low impact some of the guidelines are as follows: all electricity that powers the shows will be from renewable sources; concessionaires will be encouraged to use suppliers of biodegradable plastics; waste will be minimized through recycling and reuse; venue offices will use as little energy as possible; production lighting will include the use of LED light bulbs; staff and artist air travel will be offset through carbon credits; and ground travel will be by hybrid or high-efficiency vehicles where possible.
“This is going to be the greenest event of its kind, ever,” former Vice President and Live Earth partner Al Gore told The Associated Press. “The carbon offsets and the innovative practices that are being used to make this a green event, I think, will set the standard for years to come.”
I guess its up to all of us individually to make sure our contributions result in a win win for the environment, for example it would be very rare for this Orbler to stay glued to a TV set all weekend, if millions of us do that without offsetting that has to hurt a bit; then again you could argue that if people who watchit on TV didn't know about offsetting or have an awarenss of Global warming then if they change their behaviour because of it, it has to be good.
If you do watch, prove the hoaxers wrong and do something good.....
