We’re all aware that the environment is a major global concern. What’s interesting to see is how key public figures have recently demonstrated their willingness to take action to try to solve global warming. At times, it’s often questionable as to whether or not their efforts to solve the climate crisis are really effective. In fact, there’s been a fair amount of controversy and criticism. But, what’s clear is that they possess the ability to leverage their fame by appealing to the public with significant and widespread impact.

Earlier this month, we witnessed LIVE EARTH, which aimed to engage the masses with a 7-continent concert series in an effort to combat climate change. The huge endeavor boasted an impressive list of today’s biggest music performers and celebrities featuring Madonna, The Beastie Boys, Kayne West, and more.

In pursuit of a similar goal towards being “green,”
Linkin Park’s Projekt Revolution Tour, which kicks off today, hopes to encourage environmental consciousness by donating $1 from each ticket sold to American Forests for their global “re-leaf” program, which plants trees to decrease the effects of global climate change.

Linkin Park’s lead single “What I’ve Done,” from their newest album, “Minutes to Midnight,” moves audiences with a powerful perspective on themes of human destruction and environmental devastation and reiterates all of the things that we may recognize yet haven’t acted upon.

Sometimes it’s just a problem of knowing how to get involved with environmental groups or organizations. There are plenty of opportunities to Discover things to do and make a difference. For example, if you’re looking to meet people with interests in sustainability or clean energy, you can head up to Berkeley for East Bay Green Drinks or attend The Green Festival! Or, perhaps you’re enthusiastic about building a sustainable business. There are people just like you that are interested in sharing innovative and emerging ideas in the green economy. For others like design aficionados, The Green City Gallery is hosting workshops and social and educational events. Check it out and see how you can get involved!
