So she's not going to go on tour? That's the real climate culprit when it comes to music.

I don't think I've ever heard her music, but I applaud her taking some form of action and making noise about it.
i really can't grasp what is special about her music/talent (except having a special medical condition that acts as pr material to promote her name, and you can tell when a musician is not of value when they invest in fake breasts ): i guess her audience is too small-brained to notice this crap
I'll be honest, I don't know any of her songs. But her and her brother are clearly successful. As for the breasts, to the best of my knowledge, they're natural
nicki minaj is also successful. is she performing art ? i doubt so ..
She certainly is. Just because something doesn't appeal to me, doesn't mean it lacks legitimacy.
i am no artist but also can't force my definition of art on anyone: if her work is considered legitimate art so be it. but at least i am hopefully allowed to doubt that fact ..
Genuinely, no, you're not allowed that. If any two people agree something is art, it's art
You don't have to like it or get it, but art is art no matter what anyone says
i am no artist
Well Mikael Akerfeldt is one of the best prog-metal artist ever, and he digs Billie Eilish so maybe don't be so quick to judge.
Gawd I fucking love Mikael Alerfeldt
anyone who likes something I don’t is an idiot!
wow, moderation has tightened up during those few months i was away.
anyone who likes something I don’t is an idiot!
idiot in my regards ? ofc. idiot in general ? not really. this world is in fact run by idiocy. am i special ? not necessarily .. but i am different. hope i am allowed such trait :/
I she going on tour on a bike too?
Yes, or even by train when possible?
It would be nice, but this kind of tour means several truckloads of equipment and people, not really feasible by train I'm afraid.
Then it's all lip service
If we cant do a thing perfectly then we shouldnt even try or take any better steps?
Common sentiment I find in Lemmy or Reddit comments.
That one hipster who cares about vegan vinyl: “My time has come.”
Vegan vinyl is great. Once you get tired of the record you can slice it up and make pasta.
Shellac has been out of vogue for quite some time, I think basically all records are vegan.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Eilish, who is a long-standing climate campaigner, told Billboard magazine she felt compelled to tackle the problem.
"My parents have always kept me well informed and hyper aware that every choice we make and every action we take has an impact somewhere or on someone, good or bad, and that has always stuck with me," said the multiple Oscar and Grammy Award-winner.
Greg Cochrane, who hosts the music and sustainability podcast Sounds Like a Plan, called the star's announcement a "significant step".
Eilish's announcement comes after the star criticised artists who release multiple vinyl formats to boost album sales, calling the practise "really frustrating".
After the singer's mother, Maggie Baird, interrupted to point out that multiple vinyl sales "counts toward number one albums", Eilish responded: "I can't even express to you how wasteful it is."
Single LP colours will be made using BioVinyl - which replaces the petroleum used to manufacture Polyvinyl chloride with recycled used cooking oil.
