By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 28 February 2011
Julie’s Bicycle, the body which encourages music companies to be more eco-friendly, has handed out more of its Industry Green certificates to six major UK venues, commending them for being so darn green. The venues getting an IG nod are the newly named Capital FM Arena in Nottingham, Wembley Stadium, Cardiff International Arena, Motorpoint Arena Sheffield, O2 Apollo Manchester and Southampton Guildhall.
Julies Bicycle Director Alison Tickell told CMU: “We are delighted to announce the award of IG certificates to six of the UK’s most high profile live music venues. All have demonstrated their strong commitment to reducing their environmental impact and join a community of creative industry leaders that are setting the standard for environmentally responsible business practices through their transparency and accountability”.
