I just chucked an empty beer can out of my car window for every post in this thread.

This should surprise no one.  If it does, please return to the beach in Miami that previously housed the sand your head was buried in.

Did you guys want him to walk there?  Maybe take a sailboat for the European tour?

Transportation to the gig aside, is it off message for a climate change activist to perform a private show for a private jet company?

I understand both sides of this argument, but unless you were there you do not know the message Ed was delivering between songs. He conceivably could have used it to discuss climate change with the folks at Netjets who are all probably wealthy and influential.  

Someone of Ed’s stature is not going to help change the world from his living room. 

Love the pic with HOFer Chelios!

Needs to walk barefoot.  Don’t want to think about the carbon impact on making shoes.  I cry just thinking about it

Boom flies commercial. He was on my flight from Bos to Lax after Fenway show. Though he was in first class and was served food before coach was even seated. He did give me a big Hawaiian hug in his defense.

If that is what would pass as climate change activism, it goes a long way in explaining why people are not taking it seriously. 

And I say all this as someone who is perfectly fine with everything he's doing. My politics on the issue don't necessarily line up with the band's, so it's just strange to see him doing something counter to his position vs. mine.

Celebrities are constantly doing one thing while telling you to do another. No surprise here. Doesn’t bother me at all. I’m here for the music and concerts, not political or environmental advice. 

Spot on

Ed says (and does) a lot of things.

I have one of these he can borrow. Just follow the tide out of the Bay of Fundy and your practically there.

Man....they're putting out a new album and touring. PJ can not catch a break with some people.

I am shocked that Ed did not take a Southwest flight from Seattle to Miami!

When celebrities begin speaking about social issues I just don't listen.

Probably a smart decision.....most seem to be out of touch from their audience.  Not all, but most.

Probably shouldn't be on a rock band's website if you're too concerned about climate change...server room energy consumption is increasing exponentially each year. Do your part.

Who s that pissed off that they want to give away their pj tickets?! Please send them my way if you do.

Please stop.  You're talking about an individual who appears to bare the weight of the world on his shoulders. And it is a fact that the band has given back to humanity way more than the rest of us and to be blount those negative remarks sound like you're jealous.  I'm all about monitoring carbon footprints but you've got to know the band listens to us, the one ticket purchase change is a perfect example.  How disappointing it must be that there's so much negativity in the forum.
Just please stop.

Next up in a few weeks...Greta Thunberg and Eddie Vedder drop the green flag at the "Daytona 500 Race for Climate Change"

Growing up a Hawks fan I liked him....until I met him.

You're right, my apologies.  Being antagonistic is not helpful....peace

funny that those who bitch will get in their car, "drive" to the airport, get in a plane to "fly" to a PJ show. Fricken  hypocrites

MakingWaves

What have I done to make a difference and how does that compare to the person I’m about to complain about?  

This is what I would ask myself before posting negative comments that are basically just thrown out there to make you feel better about yourself or to make yourself appear to be more than you really are to people in a forum. 

Most people can see through the fake bullshit,  so give it a rest. 

Make a difference yourself and don’t worry about others actions.
  

So I will see y’all in St. Louis!  I’m flying there and can’t fucking wait. If I could afford it, I’d fly a private jet and circle the arch a few times for a good look at it. 

Abe Froman

Sometimes I wonder why people are even fans of this band scrutinizing every fucking thing any of them or the 10c do. So Ed flew on a private jet to a gig. Who gives a fuck. Nobody knows the circumstances so stop whining about it.
