With the new elections just around the corner, Jack Johnson is standing up and encouraging us all to register and vote!  About the environment, that is…

Jack has teamed up with Vote the Environment, which encourages people to cast their ballots for the one problem that is the underlying solution for most of the other issues our country and world are facing— the health of our natural earth.

In order to do this, Vote the Environment gives us all valuable resources and websites that are just a mouse click away to help us research our favorite candidates’ stances on green issues before we decide who to throw our support behind.

"When you vote to improve water and air quality you are voting to improve human health.  When you vote to provide incentives to use renewable energy you are helping create jobs and energy independence, and in turn making an investment in peace.  When you Vote The Environment you are not voting for one isolated issue, you are voting for all the issues," Jack says on votetheenvironment .org

But it doesn’t all just end there.  Vote the Environment is also a proud supporter of Jack’s All At Once Community, which is “a new social network where you can discuss issues and events, explore non-profit groups, and take action to make positive change in your local and world community,” according to Jack’s website.

All At Once will also be setting up interactive booths at each one of Jack’s 2008 World Tour concert sites, where fans can educate themselves, be inspired, and personally connect with local, national, and international nonprofits.
