Rock the Earth works closely with the music
industry and its fans, many of whom are concerned with the fate of our public
lands, air and water. We act as advocates to ensure the existence of a sustainable
and healthy environment for all.
Further, we aim to represent those individuals
and communities whose environment or natural surroundings are directly and adversely
affected by the actions of others. Rock the Earth, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit,
national public interest environmental advocacy organization, is committed to
protecting and defending America's natural resources through partnerships
with the music industry and the world-wide environmental community.
Rock the Earth is dedicated to bringing
about positive and beneficial environmental consequences on behalf of members
of the music industry through the means of active litigation and negotiation.
