Earthdance, Sustainable Waves, and Green Mountain Energy Company are pleased to give festival goers the opportunity to “green up” their festival experience by upgrading to a “Be Green Ticket.” When you upgrade to a Be Green Ticket for $2.00, Green Mountain Energy Company will green-up your festival experience by providing, on your behalf, 250 kWh of green-e certified renewable energy made from sources like wind and bio-energy. By purchasing a Be Green Ticket, you can help offset an estimated 341 lbs of carbon dioxide created by activities like driving your car to the festival. Offsetting 341 lbs of CO2 with renewable energy credits is like… not driving your car about 379 miles.

The consensus among our world's climate scientists concludes that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities like electricity production and transportation are indisputably the leading cause of global warming. Sustainable Waves - powered by Green Mountain Energy Company is rippling throughout the entertainment industry creating some simple effective ways for all of us to participate in the effort to do something to address this growing threat.

One of the ways you can offset your carbon footprint is by purchasing renewable energy credits (RECs). RECs are an innovative means to offset the carbon emissions impact on the environment associated with activities like electricity consumption. Each Be Green Ticket will include with it the environmental attributes of 250 kWh of electricity produced using renewable resources, such as wind, solar, or bio-energy. The generation of electricity from cleaner renewable energy sources displaces electricity that might otherwise come from burning polluting fossil fuels like coal and oil. It is in this way that the purchase of renewable energy helps offset conventional electricity generation and the associated emissions that contribute to global warming. By putting dollars behind these new renewable sources of energy, you help bring more of them online, which means less energy needs to be generated using dirty fossil fuels. The net result? Carbon offsets that reduce your carbon footprint.

Upgrade to a Be Green Ticket for Earthdance and offset some of your environmental impact!
