Shawn Mendes plans to turn every aspect of his upcoming 'Wonder' tour into 'as sustainable as possible'.
Shawn Mendes has dedicated himself to environmental sustainability and intends to make his Wonder Tour "as green as possible."
Singer broke ground on his plans in a brief statement, which read, "No plan is perfect, but we see this as a starting point. We are at a critical moment for the climate, and that's for me." It is important to note that this visit is a step in the right direction."
However, it was Mendes' manager and AG Artists founder Andrew Gertler who detailed the plan.
"We have the power to lead by example, not only for our fans and our industry, but for others as well," he told Billboard.
"The goal is that truly green touring will become the norm sooner than later and as a technology, and as our practices progress, it will also continue to become more and more cost-effective so that it can be implemented across all tours." May go, big and small."
“From revising how our Merchant was designed and built, how the Tour and our production travel and the fuels we use, our tour team and our fans need to be able to make their tour experience more sustainable. To equip you with tasks and information, we set a goal. Reduce our per-show footprint by 50% per show from previous world tours. ,
“From there, we were able to calculate our remaining CO2e footprint and plan to offset above and beyond what we are emitting, to make sure this tour doesn’t happen. Not only carbon neutral but actually carbon negative."
