What part of a concert is the worst?
This week's good news concerns a band, Coldplay to be exact. Coldplay is best known for the songs " Something Just Like This" and "The Scientist".  Coldplay has decided to stop touring until the concerts become beneficial for the environment. Chris Martin, the band's frontman said: "We're taking time over the next year or two, to work out how our tour can not only be sustainable [but] how can it be actively beneficial." I think it is a really great thing that this band is concerned about the environment and hope it will influence the rest of the music industry.

Countries outside of China have managed to cut 8.1 gigawatts of coal power while China itself added 43 gigawatts in the same period of time.
