CEF PODCAST: GLASTONBURY AND THE FUTURE OF CLIMATE READY EVENTS

Glastonbury is world-famous for its music, mud-soaked fields, and festival spirit—but could it also offer a blueprint for tackling the climate crisis? In this episode, CEF speaks with climate scientist Dr. Richard Betts about how festivals like Glastonbury are becoming microcosms of our global environmental challenges. From renewable energy and green transport to heat adaptation and eco-activism, festivals are testing real-world climate solutions. Are organisers and audiences doing enough? Should ticketing include a green travel contract? Discover what cities can learn from Glastonbury’s sustainability model and why “edutainment” may be key to driving lasting environmental change.
