Coldplay concert which is for privileged of mumbai has led middle class to face problems

I love Coldplay, love their music and their sings bring me a separate level of joy. I was really sad when I didn't get the tickets in nov. Felt immense fomo just by seeing everyone's stories. However, today i realised the harsh truth. Just to hold a Coldplay concert the amount of electricity it took and the negative impacts on the surroundings for a day are insane. I work in the development and climate action sector.I work very closely with the government for the city's development and while there are many burning issues this felt like a personal loss for the sector I am working in.

My colleagues belong from lower middle class families and live in fairly established houses in navi mumbai, mostly airoli, panvel, ulwe, uran,ghansoli, etc. They work really hard to help the city and earn for their families. Most of my colleagues from these areas mentioned that their houses didn't have electricity for upto 3 hrs and the power cuts in some spaces started a week before the concert. On Sunday, the main day of the concert, one of my colleague had a power cut for 8hrs mainly to supply electricity to the concert.

Trains were blocked, and they cannot afford expensive ubers and taxis so they had no options to travel for work.

As per information - there was 9000 kgs of waste generated in the two days from the concert alone and they hired very few civic workers who are paid minimal to clear that up.

While there were some great initiatives of refillable water bottles etc, what is the other ESG and sustainability that Coldplay keeps talking about.

The pollution the fire crackers must have caused is not even accounted for

The contrast in this situation for the priveledged class vs those who don't make nearly as much is ignored so heavily.

This brings me to very imp questions - Do we really need electric wristband made from plastic for merely few hrs just to enjoy a concert? Do we really need firecrackers for the a visual experience? Can we not make use of portable electricity generator vans for the concert? Why can't an international band who has soo much money hire organisers in the massive city of mumbai who can account for such problems? Is it really ab experience if it takes away the basic necessity from another human?

Open to hearing what those who attended think. I'm not trying to be cocky or throw shade here, just stating some facts.
