Live Earth India Cancelled

Terrorists always plan for the reaction, since they know they are limited in the direct damage they can do in even the most destructive and vile of acts. The tragic violence in Mumbai has led to the cancellation of Live Earth India, previously scheduled for December 7th, which would have supported the construction and execution of solutions to sustainable economic growth and climate change.

"Everyone involved with Live Earth India, from our U.S.- and India-based staff, artists and crew to our India-based broadcast, production, non-profit and marketing communications partners, is stunned and saddened by the tragic events of the past few days in our host city Mumbai. We always felt very welcomed and safe as we spent more time on the ground in Mumbai to finalize plans for Live Earth India, scheduled for December 7."
"Due to circumstances far beyond our control, we are saddened to announce that Live Earth India has been canceled. We will continue to work for solutions to the climate crisis for the good of the people of India and around the world. But for now, our thoughts and our prayers are with the victims of this terrible attack, with the bereaved, with the people of Mumbai and with everyone in India."
