Last Saturday hundreds of performers – actors, singers and even politicians came together in the worldwide concert event Live Earth! Said concert was organized by the Alliance for Climate Protection, an organization which was founded by US former Vice President Al Gore. The whole point of the concert is to raise money for the Alliance in order to aid in raising people’s awareness on what they can do in order to protect the environment specifically from global warming. The concert lasted 24-hours with various stars making attendance at the New Jersey Giants Stadium. Being a concert, the people were really kept entertained by the different musical scores while at the same time giving them some food for thought about the environment.

But then after the event, some skepticism came out whether the concert really served its purpose and was not just another rock concert. Why? Well, before the concert even ended huge amount of garbage was already chucked to the grounds…with this kind of scene one would really wonder if the message of the whole event really came through. Or maybe the people didn’t get it because the delivery was of the concert’s purpose was vague? If you were able to watch the concert, did you get the message?

But one thing is for sure; the 52,000 concert-goers got what they paid for in terms of entertainment with the crowd-pleasing performances of Kelley Clarkson, Alicia Keys, Madonna, Bon Jovi, Linkin Park, Beastie Boys and a lot more!
