Julie’s Bicycle is a UK-based not-for-profit company helping the music industry cut its greenhouse gas emissions and create a low carbon creative future. Their site offers many green resources and they have documented research on music industry issues ranging from CD Packaging to Audience Travel Emissions.

Their 50+ page Green Music Guide (PDF) published March 2009 is available directly from the Julie’s Bicycle site.  Audience travel at 45% and venues at 24% make up the top two in the list of the London music industry’s green house gas emissions followed by compact discs at 15%.  The guide goes beyond simply listing topics that we all share concerns about and includes case studies on actual events, festivals, venues and bands.
