Julie's Bicycle launched its eco-audit on the music industry this afternoon. JB chairman Jazz Summers told the audience at the Royal Geographical Society, 'What we decided to do was find out what we had to do.'
The report says the music industry in the UK has an annual emissions level roughly equivalent to that of a town with 54,000 inhabitants. The target is to reduce that by 80%.

The report goes online Monday.
