Additionally, JustGreen Lifestyle will conduct an energy audit and purchase carbon offsets for alternative rock band, Portugal. The Man, to bring the band's tour carbon neutral.

We are really excited to be working with Live Nation and JustGreen to be able pull off our first carbon neutral tour," said Zach Carothers, Portugal. The Man.

"Together with JustGreen Lifestyle, we are offsetting the carbon footprint of 4,000 upcoming concerts to make them carbon neutral," said Russell Wallach, president of Live Nation Network. "We are also collaborating on a number of environmental education programs and promotions for fans, including a calculator to green concert commutes, enabling fans to calculate and offset their carbon footprint."
