As an environmental engineer: why would I criticize them at all? Yes, it’s far from perfect; yes, there are so many aspects of their tour that can be improved. But environmental development is made of small steps, and it’s SO great to see world famous bands trying their best to make their tours more sustainable. It moves the whole market, gets others to consider why not do the same... it’s something. And it’s a good change in the long run. I applaud them for their attitude and for caring!

The fact that Coldplay even considered these things is great. It may be small steps, but at least the steps are being taken. For many artists the environment isn’t even a blip on their radar. And like Chris said they want to take it farther. Thanks Chris, Will, Guy and Jonny for caring enough to take these steps.

Here's something most people dont know. Coldplay's last tour was the 5th highest grossing tour OF ALL TIME. And you know what they decided to do after that tour? They decided not to go on tour for their next album because of the impact on the environment. Knowing dam well that they couldve made hundreds of millions of dollars they decided not to tour their last album due to the carbon footprint it could create. So by simply not doing one tour they've done more than most. Im proud to be a coldplay fan

It takes years, but it's possible if someone takes care of the little planted trees for a while. And that is usually what these organizations do, they not only plant the trees, but care for them. As for counting after years, you would rather fly a drone and make pictures from above the area to see how it changed and estimate number of trees like that.
