SUMMARY:The Music Industry’s Plastic-Free Evolution
DESCRIPTION:As humanity becomes more concerned about the issues surrounding climate change\, the music industry is adapting to become more sustainable\, and everyone from artists and performers\, to promoters\, venues\, and concert goers are paving the way toward a plastic-free future. \nMusicians and industry leaders have a unique platform when it comes to speaking out about issues they care about. From 1960s folk\, rock\, and soul music to 1990s grunge\, Hip Hop\, and more\, much music is rooted in social justice or movements. Over the years\, artists have helped change the world in numerous ways: addressing issues of the times from world hunger\, the Vietnam War\, Civil rights\, Women’s rights\, and LBGTQ+ rights\, to climate and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). \nSo how do artists like Jackson Browne\, Ben Harper\, Bonnie Raitt\, Keb’ Mo’\, Jack Johnson\, U2\, and others reduce their single-use plastic on the road\, on tour buses\, backstage\, and on stage? Does the music industry make the connections between the climate crisis\, the petrochemical industry\, fossil fuels\, and plastic pollution? How do musicians demonstrate their commitment to these issues and where do they see the biggest moves being made to combat plastic pollution and our budding climate crisis?  \nJoin us on August 15th for a special 90-minute webinar where we will tackle these questions and more with: Associate Senior Director of the Think 100% podcast for Hip Hop Caucus\, Jasmine Gil; Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter\, musician Grace Potter; and Sustainability Coordinator for Jack Johnson Music & All at Once Max Tischler. The conversation will be co-moderated by music industry activist Annie Farman and Hip Hop Caucus Artist Relations Director and Cultural Producer Dawn Richard. \nREGISTER HERE
