Coldplay frontman Chris Martin has announced that the band will put plans to tour on hold while the group considers how to make its concerts environmentally friendly.

Ahead of the launch of its new album, "Everyday Life," Martin said the group wants to take time over the next year or two to consider how future tours can be "sustainable" and also "actively beneficial."
"How can we harness the resources that our tour creates and make it have a positive impact?" Martin told the BBC.

Hopefully the crowd doesn't clap and uses jazz hands instead at their shows. Just in case anyone has any noise issues

He is actually saving the world by preventing people from hearing their music

I agree with this. The amount of pollution that band has subjected the world to has got to stop. I'd imagine that old cat that they torture for the unique vocals will be relieved. They are making the tough choices, but it is for the good of everyone. Heroes.

Unfortunately the days of musicians trashing hotels, snorting coke, and fricking across the world is over. They are now suicidal pussies

He should make the ultimate environmental sacrifice like Kurt Cobain. Cobain was an environmental warrior.

In a couple of years it won't matter. Cold play's future is county fairs and Indian casinos.

All jokes aside, and there are many, I actually applaud this.

Anyone who talks about climate change, but lives in a normal house with normal cars, flies more than once or twice per year, etc. is just being completely hypocritical.

Same thing for any star who has a private jet, or flies anywhere constantly, like on a tour. Or encourages thousands of people to get in a car and drive to a location for what could be had over the internet. I'll never take climate change seriously myself until I see others actually taking it seriously.

I’m gonna go with, “let’s make a super liberal excuse to not ruin a tour where not all that many people are gonna come to our shows”
