Live Earth

A quanto pare questa festa buonista dell'ipocrisia e dell'ecologismo disinformato e fai-da-te ha consumato un sacco di energia:

Gore and his team were determined to muster enthusiasm for their one-world, 24-hour epic despite yawns of concert fatigue after Live Aid, Live8 and, just six days before, the Concert for Diana. Bob Geldof had complained: 'We are all fucking conscious of global warming.' But his Live8 co-organiser, Richard Curtis, was at the London concert and, unlike those earlier spectaculars, Live Earth was reaching into China, now the biggest producer of carbon emissions .

Live Earth had also been accused of hypocrisy by bands including Arctic Monkeys, The Who and Muse, who dubbed it 'private jets for climate change'. Its total carbon footprint, including the artists and spectators' travel and energy consumption, was likely to have been at least 31,500 tonnes, said John Buckley of Carbonfootprint.com - more than 3,000 times the average Briton's annual footprint. One viewer of BBC2's Newsnight complained online: 'Would you hold a hog roast to promote vegetarianism?'

Meno male che gli organizzatori lo hanno definito uno "once in a lifetime event", o ci sarebbe davvero da preoccuparsi.
Per l'ambiente.
