Blue skies and green footprint for festival season | Environment | guardian.co.uk
the festival-goers' journeys to the 500 gigs that take place each summer remains the toughest issue. The 5 million ticket holders overwhelmingly choose car travel, except in city centres, and this makes up 68% of the festival industry's footprint.

I should note that I did not personally contribute to a low-carbon future this weekend. I had a road trip. I was a consumer-culture person. I made huge batches of food. It is possible I personally caused about a one-inch rise in sea level. Maybe a couple of extinctions. (Because of me, andouille sausage is now listed under the Endangered Species Act as “Threatened.”)

I’m told by well-placed sources that college liberals don’t like the cap-and-trade idea because it still allows carbon emissions. It’s not a ban. But you have to work with legislative reality. For some reason, urgency on climate change legislation has diminished. Somewhere along the line, the debate shifted, and now even cap-and-trade seems to be moribund in Congress. Lawmakers aren’t doing anything as far as I can tell (correct me if I’m wrong). The planet continues to heat up — but somehow, fake controversies like “Climategate” suck up all the oxygen in the room.
