That's nonsense. Is there some sort of mandate of which I am unaware that dictates that we remain dependent on these ecologically destructive habits? I say no, we can make a difference, and we can change the way to produce theater without comprising our art.

We are just too dependent on fossil fuels so individuals and even the entire theatre industry can only make a tiny impact on reducing CO2 levels. Very true.
