"Let's say the worst case scenario is that there is no connection [between global warming and natural disasters], and it's just the way that the world is moving and we're not contributing to it," Bennington said at a press conference last week. "But at the same time, what's the worst thing that could happen? We'd have cleaner air, less greenhouse gases going into the atmosphere and people are using less energy."
Projekt Revolution and Music for Relief will donate $1 from each ticket sold this summer to American Forests' Global ReLeaf program, which plants trees to reduce global temperatures.
"We're going to try to plant over a million trees during this touring cycle," Bennington said. "By raising awareness as much as possible, encouraging people to make simple changes in their life and showing them how by offering information at the tour, we can make a difference. If at the end of the day all we did was plant a bunch of trees, that's cool with me."
