Coldplay have been making efforts to be more green when it comes to touring.
This new idea from Chris Martin is certainly an unconventional one.
He now says he wants the band to tour "in a plane powered by milk".
They have been trying to use renewable energy whenever they're on the road, including using bikes at their concerts for fans to ride to generate energy.
Frontman Chris says there's still much more to be done for Coldplay: "We're about halfway where we want to go. A place we are struggling is transport.
"That's where we need help and we need technology to develop so that we can fly in a plane powered by milk or something like that. So if anyone is making a milk-based plane..."
He told the Daily Star newspaper: "People are coming to see us, kind of. But they are really coming to be part of something.
"We are almost just the house band and everyone else is proving the entertainment. Especially after, or during, COVID it's a chance to let go and be free. That's what we want to encourage in our audience and in ourselves."
The band are always trying to cut back: "We’ve been working with some amazing brains to see how we can cut down as much of the environmental impact as possible."We still have quite a long way to go, but we’ve already come quite a long way. And there are some things that we didn’t dream were possible that are possible."
