Live Earth Promotes the Power to Change Through Music

Music is the medium and change is the message with Live Earth - simple changes we can all make in our daily lives that can help the environment and combat climate change.
As avid music fans of all ages watch musicians across 7 continents share the music and the message - we hear great music and learn how we can make gradual and dramatic change. From London to New York watching Genesis or the Police music fans heard how changing light bulbs to CFL energy efficient light bulbs can make major impact. If every household in America replaced 5 bulbs it would be the equivalent of taking 10 million cars off the road. Checking and regulating the pressure in our tires can give us 5-6 % more fuel efficiency.
We are told to "answer the call" with messages of using one less paper napkin, planting trees, turning the heat down and unplugging our chargers when not in use.
All of the simple changes suggested can cumulatively make a massive impact - and that’s the message- we can all do one thing to help the environment.
What a great event - great music and hopefully a lasting message inspired by Al Gore

According to Al Gore this evening - this 2 billion audience and online event is the largest entertainment event ever in all history!
