On Saturday, March 28th at 8:30 PM, Earth Hour will take place. 

People all around the world will turn off their lights for an hour, taking a stand for reducing carbon emissions.

If you plan to turn your lights out, why not invite Radiohead’s vegan Thom Yorke to spend time in the dark with you? Musically, that is. Don’t know what you were thinking.

GreenLivingOnline.com has compiled a list of top earth friendly musicians you can put on your playlist for the evening, including Radiohead.

“Not that we need more reasons to love Thom Yorke and Radiohead, but the U.K. band is also striving to reduce carbon emissions. When touring overseas, band members transport their gear via sea and avoid chartered flights. Recently, they stayed home and telecommuted to Late Night with Conan O’Brian rather than flying. Yorke is also a long-time vegan and his solo album, The Eraser, speaks directly to climate crisis issues. radiohead.com “

We’re sure Fake Plastic Trees degrade much faster than real plastic ones. Go Radiohead!

Other green musicians on the list include pescetarian KT Tunstall, who hangs out in her green designed home when she’s not on the road, and the Beastie Boys, who use biofuel on tour and participate in cell phone recycling programs.

Mirror, mirror, on the wall. Who’s the greenest of them all?

Vegetarianism and environmentalism go hand in hand. You really can’t discuss being eco-friendly without at least talking about reducing meat consumption.

So it’s no surprise that several known vegetarians as well as some rumored vegetarians have popped up on the Coventry Telegraph list of greenest celebrities.

There’s vegan Thom Yorke of Radiohead, who refused to play in Glastonbury earlier this year, because the city had poor public transportation and he and the band felt that was damaging to the environment.

Vegan Alicia Silverstone has long supported PETA, but also has her own organic vegetable garden in the yard of her solar powered home she shares with her husband.

Natalie Portman attempted to make things greener for shoe fashionistas by starting her own vegan shoe line and donating a portion of the profits to charity. Although Te Casan closed shop, she still leads by example, never failing to let the media know she’s vegan, and filmed a video for National Geographic about how replacing regular light bulbs with energy saving light bulbs would have the environmental impact of taking millions of cars off the road.

Read about what the other celebs that made the list, including Brad Pitt, Leonardo Di Caprio, and Jack Johnson are doing at the Coventry Telegraph.
