Don't Miss Out On "Going Green"


I recently learned of another great LiveEarth blog which details additional information about the upcoming event, provides tools to become a "greener" individual, and links to articles focused on developments within the field of combating our global climate crisis. Check out the "Going Green" blog at:
http://www.liveearth.org/category-10.php

As you will note, one of the interesting issues that "Going Green" addresses is the impact of live events, including recycling and composting, transportation, food and beverages, packaging, energy, water usage, and the event site itself. From power generation at the concerts to garbage generated by concert goers, Live Earth will seek to “design out” waste and bestow an eco-friendly legacy on the live event industry.

Both our blog and "Going Green" aims to showcase Live Earth’s efforts to green every aspect of its operations.

Judge Cancels Rio Live Earth Concert

Thu Jul 05, 1:25 AM ET


A Brazilian judge has canceled Saturday's Live Earth concert in Rio because police said they do not have enough officers to guarantee crowd safety.

Organizers of the free show on Rio's Copacabana Beach said Wednesday they were trying to overturn the order to prevent Latin America from being left out of the worldwide music fest aimed at stopping global warming.

Promoted by former Vice President Al Gore, Live Earth concerts are scheduled for London; Tokyo; Johannesburg, South Africa; Shanghai, China; Sydney, Australia; and Hamburg, Germany; and East Rutherford, New Jersey. A band of scientists also will perform in Antarctica, to bring the festival to seven continents.
