Beastie Boys are working to lessen their environmental impact on tour this summer. The $1.00 charitable donation included in ticket prices will go to an EcoFund with the non-profit organization ARIA (Artists Resources in Action). With this donation, ARIA will help the Beastie Boys plan an environmentally sustainable tour including...
offsetting the estimated global warming CO2 emissions from band, crew and gear travel as well as the powering of the concerts;
coordinating BioDiesel to be used in the touring vehicles that transport gear from show to show;
organizing a cell phone recycling collection program for concert goers at the shows;
arranging for voter registration at all shows;
coordinating local and national non-profit organizations to conduct environmental and social justice education and outreach at shows;
and fund non-profit organizations working towards environmental sustainability.
