Glastonbury Festival organisers have announced that the re-sale of cancelled tickets for this year's Festival will take place at 9am on Sunday, 11th April 2010.

Glastonbury organisers really want to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that are produced in 2010. One of the biggest contributions comes from how ticket holders travel to the Festival - in fact, audience transport contributes to two thirds of the Festival's total emissions.

A coach travelling to the Festival at full capacity is the most carbon efficient way to arrive. Travelling by coach produces 6.02kg of co2 per person. By comparison, trains produce 28.40kg/person and car/campervan 37.77kg/per person. Choosing to come by coach really is the greenest way to travel to Glastonbury. (If you do come by car, please try to make sure it is full of passengers to help reduce cars on the road and emissions.)

BRISTOL: Single (£207.50), Return (£221.50)
