Coldplay has just released their 10th album titled Moon Music on October 4, 2024. This album has garnered attention because the vinyl used is made from recycled plastic waste, demonstrating the band's commitment to environmental sustainability.
Chris Martin, the lead vocalist of Coldplay, emphasized that one of the sources of the plastic waste used comes from Indonesia. This shows their efforts to support global environmental initiatives and involve various countries in the production process.
This initiative reflects Coldplay's philosophy of combining music with awareness of environmental issues. With this step, they not only provide quality artwork but also contribute to the preservation of the earth.

Coldplay, as a band that cares about environmental issues, has managed to reduce CO2e emissions by 59 percent compared to their previous stadium tour. To continue innovating in environmentally friendly principles, they launched a physical album made from recycled plastic waste.
In its official announcement, Moon Music is claimed to be the world's first album released on EcoRecord rPET LP vinyl weighing 140g. Each vinyl copy is made from nine recycled PET plastic bottles sourced from post-consumer waste.
Additionally, the standard CD edition of Moon Music is also the first in the world to be released in EcoCD form, made from 90 percent recycled polycarbonate. This move demonstrates Coldplay's commitment to delivering more sustainable and environmentally friendly music products.
2. Release of Special Notebook Album from Recycled Plastic Waste

In addition, Coldplay collaborates with The Ocean Cleanup, an organization focused on reducing plastic waste in the oceans. In this collaboration, they created a limited product in the form of a Notebook Edition LP from the album Moon Music.
Interestingly, the material used for this product consists of 70 percent plastic that was successfully collected from the Rio Las Vacas river in Guatemala in 2023. This demonstrates the commitment of both parties to innovatively reduce plastic waste.
With this step, Coldplay and The Ocean Cleanup are not only producing music but also contributing to environmental preservation efforts and raising awareness about the importance of addressing the plastic waste problem.
3. Waste Originating from Indonesia and Malaysia

In an interview on QVC Live broadcasted on YouTube, Chris Martin, the lead vocalist of Coldplay, revealed that the base material for the vinyl Moon Music also comes from plastic waste collected from Malaysia and Indonesia.
He explained, "This album is made from plastic collected from rivers in Malaysia and Indonesia by the cleanup ships we have invested in there. Each vinyl is made from nine plastic bottles."
Previously, Coldplay collaborated with The Ocean Cleanup to deploy cleanup ships in the Cisadane River in 2023. However, in April 2024, the ship named Neon Moon II had to cease operations in Cisadane due to the waste in the river not being suitable for the equipment's function.
Nevertheless, the collaboration between Coldplay and The Ocean Cleanup continues. They plan to replace the cleanup ship with barriers to block waste, which will also be provided by The Ocean Cleanup, to enhance river cleaning efforts.
