Live Earth India
October 6th, 2008
One of the biggest music events ever is taking place this year as India is set to host a new installment of Live Earth which will feature tons of celebrities in an effort to raise funds for solar energy. According to Live Earth founder Kevin Wall, the event will take place in Mumbai on December 7th. At a press conference, he said that this would be “one of the biggest events ever produced here and one of the major events on television. If you’re alive in India, somewhere, somehow, you can see or hear or become part of this event.” The show will also be shown live in over 100 countries. Proceeds from the show will go to several projects including ‘Light a Billion Lives’ campaign whose goal is to provide the 1.6 billion people worldwide who don’t have access to electricity with solar-powered lanterns.
