Description

The music industry is an ecosystem in itself, and one that's come under fire lately for its massive associated carbon footprint and waste production. Between the recording, live shows and touring, music publishing, digital streaming, distribution, and promotion, music is increasingly dominant in the modern landscape of entertainment. There are endless not-so-green elements, and we're here to explore the endless potential improvements, too.


This show was originally delivered as part of the wonderful British Science Festival in Liverpool!
