"By attracting an audience of billions, we hope Live Earth will launch a global campaign giving a critical mass of people around the world the tools they need to help solve the climate crisis," said Live Earth Co-Chair Vice President Al Gore. "But ultimately, corporations and governments must become global leaders taking decisive action to stop global warming."
