I heard a story about him doing a show somewhere abroad but he had forgot that stupid hat he wears at his gigs- so he had it flown over on a first class seat on a plane which cost some ridiculous amount.
Now tell me, if he actually cared about the envioronment/global warming he wouldnt be doing such stupid things as these.
He uses these issues to arrange big concerts with the notion that 'we are going to change the world' etc etc but at the end of the day it is just to gain publicity for himself and increase his never ending budget of undeserved millions.

This is as far as I bothered to read before I figured the rest of the wall wasn't worth bothering with, so I'll just reply to this bit.
Basically, what he does it matter if he lives in a big house or sends his hats with planes? (What hat by the way, source?) The guy has generated millions and millions for charities around the world. Besides, even if he does fly expensive planes, his efforts have been mostly focused on poverty / education / apartheid and the like. I don't think it's all for nothing just because he's got cash.
I hear he's a pain in the ass (from Norway, I don't see his TV appearances etc.) and U2 certainly got boring, but ripping on him for this seems petty, little informed and bitter if anything.
