It might be impossible for many of us to heed Sheryl Crow’s one-square-of-toilet-paper-per-toilet-visit suggestion, but the environmental news and commentary Web site Grist (www.grist.org) has made it easy to track what musicians are doing on behalf of the environment.
The Web site ranked the top 15 green bands and musicians, and grunge rockers Pearl Jam (right) earned the top spot, thanks mostly to the $100,000 donation the band made in 2006 to organizations working on climate change, renewable energy, and other green initiatives. Other eco-friendly artists on Grist’s list include The Roots, Jack Johnson, Thom Yorke, KT Tunstall and, fittingly, Green Day.
