Green EntertainmentCarbon Offsetting and Alive NetworkWe also ask that our artists volunteer to offset the CO2 travel emissions associated with Alive Network gigs. The artists who volunteer to take part if this scheme demonstrate their willingness to take responsibility for their carbon emissions and act with a ‘green conscience’. Although Alive Network has agreed to pay to offset the emissions of those artists who do not volunteer in the scheme, we feel that the volunteers deserve their due credit and so they are showcased on this page. If it’s important that the entertainment you book has green credentials, please choose one of the participating artists from the list below. Artists participating in our Carbon Offsetting Program

How does Carbon Offsetting Work?Offsetting is the process of seeking a matching carbon dioxide reduction to balance out your emissions. For example, if you were flying with your family of four to Orlando in Florida from the UK this would generate nearly 6.5 tonnes of CO2. To offset this trip, you would need to purchase 6.5 tonnes of carbon credits which would then be invested into emission reduction projects in developing countries. Why should we offset CO2 emmissions?Climate change is now internationally recognised as the single greatest challenge facing the Earth. After many years of being treated as a marginal issue most people now recognise that climate change is a real phenomenon, that the impact of carbon emissions is already being felt and that drastic action to curb carbon emissions is required to prevent irreversible and catastrophic damage to our environment and ecosystems.
