This is an extensive guide for musicians and music fans on how to reduce our impact on the planet. It describes a few of the most harmful activities we participate in and how to make them more eco-friendly. That way, we can indulge our passion for music while treading lightly on the earth. You don’t have to digest all of this right now. There’s so much information here, it would be a good idea to bookmark it and keep coming back to it. Implement one thing at a time into your life before trying the next one. I’d like to add even more items to the list as time goes on, so that’s another good reason to bookmark it and come back to it. This article is part of Blog Action Day which we have been promoting here on HearingTest since August, but we post articles about the environment regularly here. If you like this one, dig through our culture archives to see more about what musicians and music lovers are doing to benefit Planet Earth. ([More →])

HearingTest has enjoyed a very productive weekend!! We have a new Front Page with a little bit of featured content, a space for event flyers, and a layout that makes it easy to see everything new in the Music News and Culture categories all at once. Now that the Front Page is sorted out, we put all the new posts on the News page where they belong. As always, we have the individual channels for those of you that prefer to surf the music by genre. But now you can also subscribe to each channel individually too! You can mix and match to get all the content you want and none that you don’t. Check out the Subscribe page for all the Feed details. But wait, it gets oh so much better… ([More →])
