GREEN BAND ACTIONS ON TOUR
In 2008, Jack Johnson and his crew are taking action to minimize the environmental impact of their world tour.
Greening actions include:
THE "ENVIRORIDER" (environmentally-conscious production rider)
In 2005, the Johnson’s, along with their crew, MusicMatters, and the leading environmental scientists developed the EnviroRider, an environmental handbook presenting eco-friendly options and actions for the various components of tour production (coordination, travel, venues, etc.). Since its 2005 release, the EnviroRider has been used by hundreds of artists and tours to date, quickly becoming the industry’s guide to green touring.
Contact MusicMatters for more information on the EnviroRider www.musicmatters.net.
In 2008, Jack Johnson and his crew are taking action to minimize the environmental impact of their world tour.
Greening actions include:
- Providing on-site water stations, waste management, and recycling services.
- Reducing waste with the use of biodegradable food service items and reusable water bottles that can be refilled on-site.
- Fueling tour vehicles and/or generators with sustainable biodiesel (where available) to help reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by up to 78%.
- Offering eco-friendly tour merchandise, including organic cotton clothing, reusable water bottles, and tote bags.
- Minimizing distribution of paper at shows and using 100% recycled paper and soy-based inks for all printed materials.
- Using sustainable and recycled materials whenever possible for Village Green elements.
- Selecting environmentally-conscious travel and hotel options.
- Procuring locally grown and organic foods for backstage catering
- Offsetting all remaining CO2 emissions from the tour and for each night’s show using a unique CO2 Offset Strategy.
- Encouraging YOU to join us in action at each show by using mass transit or carpooling to the venue, visiting the Village Green, utilizing the recycling and water stations, offsetting your carbon footprint, and joining the All At Once community.

2008 WORLD TOUR OFFSET STRATEGY
Every effort has been taken to reduce the CO2 emissions of Jack Johnson's 2008 World Tour-including powering buses, coaches and generators with bio diesel, recycling at venues, and more. Bio fuels burn cleaner than petroleum and generate dramatically less CO2 emissions. Because CO2 emissions are a direct cause of climate change, the tour is offsetting all of its remaining emissions and is striving to be 100% carbon neutral.
About climate change:
The main cause of climate change (65%) is burning fossil fuels (i.e. driving cars and burning coal to make electricity). The remaining (35%) is the result of other human activities-the largest being cutting and burning of tropical forests.
About the Jack Johnson 2008 World Tour Offset Strategy:
This tour will offset its impact on climate change by contributing 65% of offset dollars toward addressing fossil fuel consumption by building new renewable energy sources like wind and solar and 35% to programs that avoid deforestation by protecting large tracts of old-growth jungles and forests. We are working with offset partners who can quantify positive impact on local communities the tour will visit. When this is the not possible, this strategy seeks to directly impact the region.
To learn more about what you can do to curb climate change check out:
U.S and International avoided deforestation offset partner:
Amazon Conservation Association
Unlike groups that plant seedlings, this non-profit organization protects larges tracts of threatened, hyper-diverse rainforest in South America and uses state-of-the-art science to design its conservation programs.
U.S and International renewable energy offset partners:
Ark Climate, Australia/New Zealand
Offsets are used to fund the generation of wind, solar, waste, or certain forms of hydro or tidal power.
gConscious, Japan
The first Japanese carbon offsetter, this company offers VER (verified emission reduction) to fund wind farms built in Akita or Hokkaido. gconscious.jp/vision.html
Evolution Sage, Hawaii
Hawaii's only group countering climate change through the sale of locally-generated carbon offsets and emission inventory services.
EmissionStatement, UK
With its mission to make tackling climate change simple, this organization offers high quality Gold Standard carbon credits and promotes carbon reduction education in the UK.
Co2balance, France/Spain/Germany/Portugal
Offset funds from the tour are used to plant trees in local communities and purchase solar ovens and energy efficient stoves powered by renewable energy for East African communities.
Climate Neutral Group, The Netherlands
Based in The Netherlands, projects include solar power in Nicaragua; wind energy in India, New Zealand and Taiwan and small-scale hydro in China.
Native Energy, North America
This reputable company uses carbon offset proceeds to fund vital new wind energy projects on Native American lands.

BRUSHFIRE RECORDS GREENING
Recorded using 100% solar energy, printed on 100% post-consumer waste recycled paper, and carrying the 1% For The Planet logo, Jack Johnson’s new album, Sleep Through the Static, is paving the way for responsible CD production and packaging.
Brushfire Studio & Offices
Jack Johnson’s record label, Brushfire Records, is blazing a trail in environmental responsibility among record labels.
Brushfire is headquartered in a newly-renovated green building, leveraging a number of innovative features to keep their environmental impact low. These features include:
In addition, the label pays close attention to its internal operations, monitoring energy use and increasing efficiency through lighting and fixtures, reducing office waste and ensuring company-wide recycling, sourcing sustainable goods for office supplies and other operational needs, and offsetting all company CO2 emissions.
On the cd packing front, Brushfire convinced Universal (their manufacturer/distributor) to use FSC-certified recycled paper for all their Brushfire music and movie releases, developed the first 100% recycled plastic tray, and piloted a new form of environmental packaging called Eco-Pac. Brushfire is currently challenging Universal to develop a biodegradable corn-based shrink wrap and soy-based inks, and are developing a recycled plastic slimline or paper replacement for all radio singles.

1% For The Planet
Jack Johnson and his Brushfire label are members of 1% for the Planet and they encourage their Brushfire artists to do the same. In 2004, Jack Johnson became the 50th member of 1% For The Planet. Johnson’s 2005 Brushfire Records release of In Between Dreams became the first album to carry the 1% label and his 2005 world tour promoted the 1% For The Planet mission and brand and helped to launch the organization. Today 1% For The Planet is a growing global movement of more than 800 companies that donate 1% of their sales to a network of more than 1,500 environmental organizations worldwide. In the process, these companies pave the way for more corporate responsibility in the business community.
