My Morning Jacket, their touring crew, and management team are working with REVERB to make the tour more sustainable and reduce its environmental footprint. Efforts include:

• Reusable Bottles & Coffee Mugs for all band and crew to help reduce the need for disposable single-use plastic
• Recycling on all band and crew tour buses as well as throughout backstage including batteries
• Toiletry Collection and Donation to local shelters for all unused toiletries from hotel stays
• Calculating and Neutralizing the Tour’s Climate Footprint including emissions from venue energy use, band and crew travel and accommodations, and trucking
• Supporting Carbon Fighting Projects: Funding and building projects in diverse communities that eliminate greenhouse gas pollution

Greenhouse Gas Reduction Projects

As part of My Morning Jacket’s climate commitment as partners of REVERB’s Music Climate Revolution campaign, the band is supporting projects that directly eliminate greenhouse gas pollution.

Fans can help! Funds from ticket sales & fan donations for #RockNRefill bottles in the Action Village and the Fandiem Contest are helping make this support possible.

Funding will be directed to projects including:

• The Kenya Clean Water Project – providing clean drinking water to communities in need in Haiti. This project presents a new solution to the challenges of extreme poverty, poor health, and the increasing carbon dioxide emissions associated with burning wood to boil water for drinking.
• Capricorn Ridge Wind Project – an onshore wind energy generation project located in Coke County, TX. Consisting of seventy-five 1.5 megawatt turbines, this project avoids an average of 160,000 metric tonnes of greenhouse gas pollution each year.
