Tom
Scholz and the popular rock band Boston are donating $1.00
from every ticket sold on their nationwide summer 2003 tour to the
Sierra Club. The donations will be used by the Sierra Club in its
efforts to protect
America's communities by fighting for clean air and water, fighting
to clean up toxic waste sites, and safeguarding America's majestic
landscapes.
"Children are developing
asthma near polluting power plants. Cancer incidence is increasing
dramatically. Toxic pollution of air, water, and food has reached
an alarming level. Woodlands are being replaced by asphalt, strip
malls, and soon oil rigs. With global warming threatening
our very existence, the IRS is giving tax incentives to buy bigger
fuel burning SUV's.
"Meanwhile we have a government that's busy catering to the
whims of the environmentally irresponsible Corporate American financial
powers that got them elected. People need to get involved now, and
Sierra Club offers a way everyone can help in this fight for our
planet."
