Coldplay To Make New Album On Vinyl From Recycled Plastic Bottles

stayc main image

Coldplay has announced an innovative and eco-friendly initiative for their upcoming album Moon Music, which will be produced on vinyl made from recycled plastic bottles. The British band aims to create the most environmentally sustainable album ever by using nine recycled plastic bottles for each vinyl press. This initiative is expected to prevent the creation of more than 25 metric tonnes of plastic waste and reduce their carbon emissions by 85%. This move aligns with Coldplay's long-standing commitment to environmental sustainability, as demonstrated by their Music of the Spheres tour, which featured solar-powered lights.

Coldplay's dedication to eco-friendly practices sets a significant example in the music industry, where sustainability is becoming an increasingly important issue. Their efforts contrast with criticisms in the industry regarding environmental waste. For instance, Billie Eilish has recently criticized artists for releasing multiple versions of albums with different packaging, labeling such practices as wasteful. Eilish herself has been a vocal advocate for sustainability, having partially powered her headline show at Lollapalooza with a temporary “solar farm” on the festival site.

These initiatives by both Coldplay and Billie Eilish highlight a growing trend among artists to incorporate sustainable practices into their music production and performances. Coldplay's use of recycled materials for Moon Music and Eilish's renewable energy efforts at Lollapalooza demonstrate how musicians can take meaningful steps to reduce their environmental impact, inspiring fans and the broader industry to prioritize sustainability.
