Coldplay are continuing their environmental focus by releasing their new album Moon Music on vinyl made from recycled plastic bottles.

The British band said the EcoRecord LP will be a “world first” and will reduce carbon emissions by 85% compared with traditional 140g vinyls, and prevent the manufacture of more than 25 metric tonnes of virgin plastic.
