Jack Johnson Tickets – Working for the Sea, Land & Air
Returning to the stage for 2010, earth friendly surfer Jack Johnson’s aptly named To the Sea is helping the sea, the land and the air in the first environmentally friendly world tour. Kicking off the tour in July, he’ll close out in October in his former stomping ground, Santa Barbara. The June release will mark his fifth studio effort, an effort that has Johnson producing with band members Merlo Podlewski, Zach Gill and Adam Topol.

A longtime environmentalist, Johnson finds that consciously living aware of the environment is synonymous with breathing. Since growing up on Oahu’s North Shore, Johnson always been a born lover of Mother Nature’s powerful ways and can’t image life without them. Now he’s doing something proactive about protecting it â?? from donating 100% of tour proceeds to the Johnson Ohana Charitable Foundation to creating the Kokua Festival in Hawaii. The latter is an environmentally friendly get-together that raises awareness and funds for his foundation.
“Once we started doing this fest in Hawaii, [we started] learning ways we could lessen the negative impact of a show by using biodiesel, water stations, recycling bins, all the little things you could do to lessen the negative impact,” Johnson said to MTV. “And then started to see how you could expand on the positive impact by having local nonprofit groups at every venue you play, so as the people from that town are coming to the shows.”
