On July 7, more than 2 billion people will join together to watch the Live Earth concerts and demonstrate to our leaders that the time has come to solve the climate crisis.

Wherever you are that day, you can be part of the action. At events around the world, we are going to convert the potential energy of Live Earth into a global campaign. In thousands of homes, people will invite their friends and neighbors to watch the concerts and join the movement to solve the climate crisis.

NBC will be televising Live Earth and even more extensive coverage will be available live on MSN.

Live Earth will be a unique moment when the uninterrupted and undivided attention of the world will be focused on the climate crisis.
