What the venue reports on its Scope 1 and 2 emissions, and how trustworthy the figure is.
What we found
Desk review: headline 'world's first carbon-removed arena events' (~546 t across 4 shows) is carbon-REMOVAL/offset-based marketing; AEG is still establishing a scientific Scope 1-3 baseline with A Greener Festival (full net-zero plan pending). Real measures exist (LED -60 t/yr; wind/solar/hydrogen mix since 2015 avoiding 43,158 t). Correctly Certified, not Leader, until a verified baseline and absolute trajectory are published.
Based on published or independently verifiable evidence available at the time of assessment.
