LiveEarth TV Episode 2

LiveEarth TV Episode 2 provides a look into the global water crisis as it relates to children in the developing world -- 5,000 die every day as a result of unsafe drinking water.

Artist, entrepreneur, and Live Earth supporter Pete Wentz talks to Shira about why he's active in causes around the world, what the Global Water Crisis means to him now that he's a father, and why YOU should participate in the Dow Live Earth Run for Water.

You can make a difference now for the nearly 1 billion people without access to clean, safe drinking water. Give hope for the holidays by donating at liveearth.org/give.
