Do you really think the concerts are responsible for more CO2 emissions than all the dirty coal electricity plants run by the Chinese government? Or all the emissions produced by aircraft from a major airline or a shipping company like FedEx? Or the daily operations of the United States military, with all their gas-guzzling Hummers and armoured vehicles, not to mention hundreds of diesel-burning ships and thousands of jet aircraft?

Seriously?
That is actually a very good point
