I really have to say hats off to the climbers. Summit on the Summit was created by Kenna (singer; "say goodbye to love") and his father to raise awareness of water shortages and contamination. We're undergoing a serious epidemic and if we don't take action now we may lose 1 of the most vital nutrients needed to continue life. WATER! Yeah you're prolly looking around you and thinking to yourself there's mad water everywhere right? Wrong. We're either polluting it, or we're overusing it and once again we're finding ourselves in the same pickle we were years ago. Remember the campaigns all over NYC to reduce the amount of time we take in the shower? Or if its brown flush it down if its yellow leave it mellow? Okay I'm joking on that one but seriously, we're nearing the date in which our damage will be irreversible and if we destroy the earth we have, where are we going to live?? While we go out to clubs and waste away our days, we forget that we are all having children and we continue to forget that they won't be able to live long if we don't take action today.
By the way I may have skipped the fact that in order for the climbers to raise awareness, climbers that include Emile Hersh, Jessica Biel and Lupe Fiasco; they have decided to climb Mount Kilamanjaro in Tanzania, Africa. Meaning they're risking their lives to raise awareness and to make enough cash to give back clean water.
They created episodes and posted them on youtube.com to show how they trained. Some may be comedic but its for real for real for serious though:
