Last weekend, we were privileged to attend Lollapalooza in Chicago. We’ve worked with C3 Presents, the production company behind mega-music festivals Austin City Limits and Lollapalooza, for the past 3 years helping fans support renewable energy. When you purchase your ticket online, you can add on a small amount ($3 to $5) to help offset your carbon footprint by supporting renewable energy. We call it the BeGreen Fan Tag, and over 3,300 Lollapalooza fans decided to buy one this year. Wow! And we sold hundreds more at the festival from our booth:
The environmental impact of a BeGreen Fan Tag at Lolla this year was impressive. For $5, fans helped avoid about 665 pounds of carbon dioxide, which is as much as 39 trees can absorb in one year! To put it another way, it’s like not driving about 738 miles.
Even though Lollapalooza is over, you can still get your BeGreen Fan Tag for ACL, which is October 2nd – 4th, 2009. Visit their website here to snap up remaining one day passes!
